As part of an ambitious expansion strategy, SmartLynx Airlines, a high-profile European ACMI charter and cargo operator has announced the addition of two more A321Fs to its growing cargo fleet.
The two new cargo freighter aircraft will bring the airline’s A321F fleet to a total of eight active aircraft of the type by the end of 2022. Additionally, SmartLynx, a family member of Avia Solutions Group, has plans to double its fleet number in the near future.
Both A321Fs – MSN 1204 (9H-CGC) and MSN 775 (9H-CGD) – are leased to SmartLynx by entities managed by Cross Ocean Partners and will be registered in Malta. The passenger-to-freighter conversion is being undertaken by Precision Conversions in the United States and the aircraft are expected to enter service in Q1 2022.
