GOAL Aircraft Leasing (GOAL), a joint venture between KGAL GmbH & Co. KG, a German investment and asset manager and Deutsche Lufthansa AG, has sold and delivered one Airbus A350-900 aircraft to global aircraft lessor AviLease. The aircraft is subject to a long-term lease agreement with Fiji’s national carrier, Fiji Airways.
The aircraft was delivered to AviLease at the end of December 2025. The A350 was originally placed on lease with Fiji Airways in 2023 and has since been held by a KGAL fund. GOAL structured and managed both the initial purchase and lease transaction in 2023, as well as the subsequent sale with the lease attached.
Christian Schloemann, Managing Director of GOAL, commented: “We are pleased to have successfully completed the first divestment of an aircraft from the KGAL fund. We congratulate AviLease on this acquisition and thank them for their professional and cooperative approach. GOAL applied its full range of capabilities to acquire this A350-900 aircraft without a lessee and place it with a reputable airline such as Fiji Airways. This transaction clearly demonstrates the success of the opportunistic investment strategy pursued by KGAL’s equity investors. We look forward to identifying further aircraft opportunities to reinvest the available liquidity.”
GOAL currently owns and manages a portfolio of 64 aircraft with a total investment volume of approximately US$2.6 billion. With more than 25 years of experience, GOAL has established a strong track record in operating leasing, technical asset management and aircraft remarketing, underpinned by deep industry expertise and professional excellence.
