Aegean adds to A321neo order
March 14, 2025
Aegean Airlines has confirmed an expanded aircraft order with Airbus, securing an additional eight A321neos.
The Greek carrier’s total direct orders for the Airbus A320neo family now stand at 60 aircraft, of which 37 have already been delivered.
Aegean placed an order for four Airbus A321neo aircraft last spring, unveiling plans to create a “special purpose” fleet designed to serve longer-range destinations beyond Europe.
Dimitris Gerogiannis, Aegean’s Chief Executive Officer, said: “The expansion of our investment plan with the additional order of eight Airbus A321neo aircraft is essential for achieving our growth objectives and further enhancing the competitiveness of our operations.
“It is also clear that we have a strong preference for the larger-capacity and extended-range version offered by the A321neo type, which will soon represent two-thirds of our Airbus fleet.”
Benoit de Saint-Exupéry, Airbus EVP Sales of the Commercial Aircraft business, added: “We are delighted that Aegean has once again chosen the fuel-efficient A321neo.
“This decision underscores Aegean’s commitment to operational excellence and enhancing the passenger experience. We value our collaboration with the largest Greek airline and look forward to continuing our partnership, supporting their growth plans within Europe and beyond.”
