Romanian budget carrier Blue Air starts receiving 737 Max 8s
Romanian operator Blue Air has started taking delivery of Boeing 737 Max jets, with the first of a batch introduced from US lessor Air Lease. Blue Air unveiled an order for six 737 Max 8s during the Paris air show in 2017 and, at the time, stated that it would take another 12 737s – six Max 8s and six -800s – from the lessor. The agreement included options which would have potential taken the total number of aircraft acquired to 20. But Air Lease says the initial Max 8 (YR-MXA) newly transferred to Blue Air is one of 10 destined for the carrier. The remaining nine aircraft, powered by CFM International Leap-1B engines, will be delivered from April this year and through 2022.<br/>
