Finnair wet-leases an A320 for peak summer 2022 season

Finnair (AY, Helsinki Vantaa) has announced it will wet-lease an A320-200 from DAT LT (R6, Kaunas) between June 20 and October 29, 2022.

"DAT LT will be operating selected flights on our Helsinki Vantaa-Copenhagen Kastrup route in June, and on Oulu and Lisbon routes between July and October. The leased aircraft and crew are supporting Finnair's operational stability during the busy summer season," the Finnish carrier said.

The ch-aviation fleets advanced module shows that Finnair's in-house narrowbody fleet comprises six A319-100s, ten A320-200s, and nineteen A321-200s. In turn, DAT LT's A320 Family fleet includes two A320-200s and one A321-200s. One of the A320s is wet-leased to Corendon Airlines Europe (XR, Malta Int'l) and the A321 to Corendon Airlines (XC, Istanbul Sabiha Gökcen), while the other A320 is currently in maintenance at Sofia airport. However, Chief Executive Jesper Rungholm confirmed to ch-aviation that the airline will add new A320s this summer. The Finnair ACMI contract will initially be operated y OY-RUH (msn 6749) - currently still in maintenance at Malta Int'l as 2-HXHU - and later with OY-RUY (msn 6733), currently at Amman Queen Alia as VP-CGZ.

DAT (Denmark) (DX, Kolding) and Finnair are already close partners as they jointly own the regional capacity provider NoRRA Nordic Regional Airlines (N7, Helsinki Vantaa). DAT owns a 60% stake, while the Finnish carrier controls the remaining 40%.

Even as Finnair wet-leases in capacity for its short- and medium-haul network, its long-haul operations remain stifled by the closure of the Russian airspace. As such, it has wet-leased two of its seventeen A350-900s out to EW Discover (4Y, Frankfurt Int'l).

Airbus Updates No.3699

 

Asia Cargo Network eyes A321, A330 freighters

Although Asia Cargo Network has tentatively agreed to add two P2F converted A321-200s, it will continue to monitor the current market environment, including fuel prices and the impact of the war in Ukraine, before finalising the deal, Chief Executive Marko Isaak told Cargo Facts.

The Singapore-based group, which controls World Cargo Airlines in Malaysia and Asia Cargo Airlines and Black Stone Airlines in Indonesia, could take the first A321 freighter in July 2022 and the second one in September. The group is also engaged in "serious negotiations" with an existing A330 operator in Asia to add its first converted widebody freighters, although Isaak did not provide any further details.

He added that the group will also grow its B737-800 freighter fleet, with around five set to join its fleet in the next two years. He did not specify on which AOC(s) they would be placed, however.

Malaysia's World Cargo Airlines (formerly Asia Cargo Express) recently doubled its B737-800(BCF) fleet to two units. It also operates one B737-300(F) and one B737-400(F), the ch-aviation fleets advanced module shows. In turn, Indonesia's Asia Cargo Airlines operates five B737-300(F)s and Black Stone Airlines - two units of the type. Isaak said the B737 Classic freighters continue to offer great economics for cargo runs between Indonesia's numerous islands.

The group's spokesperson did not respond to ch-aviation's query about its A321 and A330 freighter plans.

Although Asia Cargo Network is heavily centred on cargo operations, Black Stone Airlines plans to add up to four A330-900s for passenger charters, focused on the Hajj/Umrah operations.

ITA Airways takes delivery of 1st A350

On 12 May 2022, ITA Airways welcomed its first A350. The aircraft, A350-900 EI-IFA (308) was delivered to Rome-Fiumicino from Shannon. Since its delivery it has been flying test-flights out of Rome-Fiumicino in preparation for its entry into commercial service on 1 June. The airline will use its new flagship first on the new Rome-Fiumicino to Buenos Aires-route. Later, it will also be deployed to New York-JFK (NY).

Although this particular airframe was built in 2019, it has never seen active commercial service. It was, originally, intended to be operated by Tianjin Airlines but never delivered. In 2021 it was acquired by lessor ALAFCO, which found a home for it with ITA Airways.

In total, ITA Airways will operate eight A350-900s. Four of these are leased via ALAFCO, the other four via Air Lease Corporation.

Turkish Airlines orders more A350s

In a very short statement on its investor relations website, Turkish Airlines has announced it has agreed with Airbus to acquire six additional A350-900s. The aircraft, which were (presumably) not taken-up by other airlines, will be delivered this year and next year.

Currently, Turkish Airlines has taken delivery of six of its twenty A350-900s ordered. With this latest purchase, the total number of A350s ordered by the airline now stands at 26.
