AviLease, the global aircraft lessor based in Saudi Arabia, has announced the signing of strategic agreements with Turkish Airlines for the long-term lease of eight Airbus A320neo aircraft, further deepening the partnership between the two aviation leaders.
Under the agreement, two aircraft have already been delivered, with the remaining six scheduled for delivery throughout 2025. The modern and fuel-efficient A320neo aircraft will support Turkish Airlines’ ongoing efforts to expand and modernise its fleet while enhancing sustainability performance.
Edward O’Byrne, Chief Executive Officer of AviLease, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership:
“We thank the Turkish Airlines team for their partnership, and we are delighted to further strengthen our relationship.
These aircraft will support Turkish Airlines’ growth plans while contributing to their fleet modernisation strategy and sustainability goals.”
The A320neo family is renowned for its superior fuel efficiency and reduced environmental footprint, making it a strategic choice for airlines aiming to meet increasing demand while aligning with global sustainability standards.
AviLease has rapidly established itself as a key player in the global aircraft leasing sector. As of today, the company’s portfolio includes 200 owned and managed aircraft, along with purchase commitments, leased to 48 airlines worldwide.
This latest agreement highlights AviLease’s commitment to providing flexible, long-term leasing solutions to top-tier carriers and further underscores the continued demand for next-generation narrowbody aircraft.
