ürkiye's AnadoluJet adds first A320neo
Turkish Airlines (TK, Istanbul New) has taken delivery of its first A320-200N for operation by its low-cost AnadoluJet (TK, Ankara Esenboga) division.
On lease from CDB Aviation, TC-LUK (msn 11103) was handed over on September 6, 2022, but has yet to be ferried from Toulouse Blagnac to Türkiye. It is the first of two units AnadoluJet plans to induct by October 1. Mainline Turkish Airlines does not operate any A320neo.
The short-haul division of Turkish Airlines will deploy the A320neo out of its base at Istanbul Sabiha Gökcen. AnadoluJet is opportunistically expanding its fleet, having scooped seven B737-8s and one A321-200NX not taken up by sanctioned Russian carrier S7 Airlines (S7, Novosibirsk) earlier this year. The division's fleet also comprises 39 in-house B737-800s and a further 13 of the type under a long-term ACMI agreement with SunExpress (XQ, Antalya).
The ch-aviation fleets ownership module shows that CDB Aviation also owns one B737-800 operated by AnadoluJet and one B777-300(ER) operated by Turkish Airlines mainline.
