AerFin has continued its momentum into 2018 by taking delivery of the fourth and fifth Embraer E170 E-Jets, MSN: 123 and 108 from Saudi Arabian Airlines, including ten spare CF34-8E engines and a significant volume of E170 and E190 spare components from the airline.
This is following the 2017 announcement that the aftermarket solution specialist acquired the entire Saudia Airlines E170 fleet, as the operator phased-out operations of the aircraft.
Both aircraft are expected to be available for a sale or lease with a number of leading regional airline operators already expressing strong interest. The delivery will further strengthen AerFin’s growing range of E-Jet “Beyond Support” services, which range from flight-hour component pool solutions through to the sale or lease of whole aircraft, engines and major assets.
The E-Jet deliveries also follows the news that AerFin recently announced its “Beyond Pool” component support agreement for BA CityFlyer’s entire fleet of E-Jet aircraft. The “Beyond Pool” agreement offers a fixed-cost solution for all of the airline’s E-Jet component requirements.
