Global Airways Expands Fleet with A320-232
Global Airways has acquired another Airbus A320-232 as part of its strategy to replace its older aircraft with a more efficient fleet.
The aircraft, manufacturer serial number 2167, initially served Martinair in Holland before being purchased by Macquarie AirFinance and operated by Etihad Airways until June 2023.
Now in the hands of Global Aviation Operations, based at Johannesburg’s O.R. Tambo International Airport, the aircraft will undergo South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA) certification.
Thereafter, it will be placed on South Africa’s civil aviation register as ZS-GAB and added to Global Airways’ licence.
The newly-acquired aircraft will be wet-leased by Afrijet and will fly under the Fly Gabon banner, providing operational capacity and enhancing regional connectivity in its markets.
With this safe and reliable aircraft, Global Airways can extract efficiencies that will bolster its operations. It also enhances Global Airways’ competitive fleet solutions offering to its partners and customers.
Global Airways Chief Operating Officer, Sandy Baynes, says that the company’s fleet renewal program is based on sound financial principles that allow more efficient aircraft to be operated without incurring financial debt and or other potentially onerous and inflexible obligations
