AirAsia to resume Airbus A321neo deliveries in 2024 as growth returns


Tan Sri Tony Fernandes

SYDNEY: Malaysian budget carrier AirAsia plans to resume deliveries of 362 Airbus SE A321neos remaining on order starting in 2024, the chief executive of parent Capital A Bhd said, having postponed the arrivals during the pandemic.

The airline, one of Airbus' biggest customers, had only taken four A321neos before COVID-19 decimated air travel. It last year agreed with Airbus to restructure the order with deliveries due through 2035, though it had not provided a start date for the resumption at that time.
