IndiGo signs for 300 A320neo Family aircraft
Toulouse – India’s IndiGo has placed a firm order for 300 A320neo Family
aircraft. This marks one of Airbus’ largest aircraft orders ever with a
single airline operator.
This latest IndiGo order comprises a mix of A320neo, A321neo and A321XLR
aircraft. This will take IndiGo’s total number of A320neo Family aircraft
orders to 730.
“This order is an important milestone, as it reiterates our mission of
strengthening air connectivity in India, which will in turn boost economic
growth and mobility. India is expected to continue with its strong aviation
growth and we are well on our way to build the world’s best air
transportation system, to serve more customers and deliver on our promise of
providing low fares and a courteous, hassle free experience to them," said
Ronojoy Dutta, Chief Executive Officer of IndiGo.
“We are delighted that IndiGo, one of our early launch customers for the
A320neo, continues to build its future with Airbus, making Indigo the world’
s biggest customer for the A320neo Family,” said Guillaume Faury, Airbus
Chief Executive Officer. “We are grateful for this strong vote of confidence
as this order confirms the A320neo Family as the aircraft of choice in the
most dynamic aviation growth markets.” He added: “We are pleased to see our
aircraft allowing IndiGo to take full advantage of the predicted growth in
Indian air travel.”
"We were believers in IndiGo from day one and are thrilled to be able to
perpetuate this most fruitful partnership,” said Christian Scherer, Airbus
Chief Commercial Officer. “IndiGo has brilliantly demonstrated the relevance
of the A320neo for leading low cost operators, and the A321neo - and now the
A321XLR - provide our operators with the logical next step in cost
efficiency, passenger comfort and market coverage.”
“We are pleased to partner yet again with Airbus for our next batch of
Airbus A320neo Family aircraft. The fuel-efficient A320neo family aircraft
will allow IndiGo to maintain its strong focus on lowering operating costs
and delivering fuel efficiency with high standards of reliability. The choice
of engine manufacturer for this order will be made at a later date,” said
Riyaz Peermohamed, Chief Aircraft Acquisition and Financing Officer of IndiGo.
IndiGo is among the fastest growing carriers in the world. Since its first
A320neo aircraft was delivered in March 2016, its fleet of A320neo Family
aircraft has grown into the world’s largest with 97 A320neo aircraft,
operating along side 128 A320ceos.
The A321XLR is the next evolutionary step from the A321LR which responds to
market needs for even more range and payload, creating more value for the
airlines. The aircraft will deliver an unprecedented Xtra Long Range of up to
4,700nm – with 30 percent lower fuel burn per seat compared with previous
generation competitor jets.
At the end of September 2019, the A320neo Family had received more than 6,650
firm orders from nearly 110 customers worldwide.
