July 15, 2019: Faroe Islands flag carrier Atlantic Airways has taken delivery of its first A320neo aircraft.
The aircraft is on lease from Air Lease Corporation (ALC) and is powered by CFMI LEAP-1A engines and is configured in an all-economy cabin layout.
The airline plans to further develop its European network as it receives this new jet.
The airline, an Airbus customer since 2008, already operates an all-Airbus fleet of three A320 family aircraft (currently two A319ceos and one A320ceo). In addition, the airline also recently placed a firm order for two additional A320neos.
Featuring the widest single-aisle cabin in the sky, the efficient A320neo Family incorporates the very latest technologies including new generation engines and Sharklets, which together deliver more than 20 percent fuel and CO2 savings as well as a 50 percent noise reduction.
With more than 6,500 orders received from over 100 customers, the A320neo Family has captured some 60 percent of the market.
