Croatia Airlines leases A220s from ALC
In October 2022, Scramble reported that Croatia Airlines has selected the Airbus A220 as its aircraft to renew its fleet with. Since then, the airline has signed a firm order in November 2022 for six A220-300s with Airbus, but also said it would look to lease an additional nine A220s in order to replace the whole fleet and standardize on a single aircraft-type.
On 16 January 2023, Air Lease Corporation announced it has reached a lease-agreement with Croatia Airlines for the lease of six A220s, which will be two A220-100s and four A220-300s. ALC said the A220s would be delivered in 2024 and 2025. It's unclear if the airline is seeking leases for three more A220s or that this is it for now.
With this latest lease-deal, the airline has now secured orders and leases for a total of twelve Airbus A220s, of which two are the smallest version. Currently, Croatia Airlines is operating a fleet of thirteen aircraft consisting of five Airbus A319s, two A320s and six DHC-8-400s.
