Jet2 orders new Airbus jets

Jet2 is refreshing its fleet with a new order of Airbus jets.

Jet2 plc entered into an agreement with Airbus to purchase 36 new Airbus A321 NEO aircraft with an option to extend it to 60 aircraft.

Jet2 will take delivery of the jets over five years until 2028.

The order is valued at about $4.9 billion based on current list prices.

Jet2 plc’s Executive Chairman Philip Meeson said: "We are delighted to have placed this order and are proud to operate this aircraft which has more seats, provides additional operating benefits through lower fuel consumption and is, in our opinion, the most efficient and environmentally friendly aircraft in its class today."
