Tweet Picks:
@Vinamralongani After @Airbus (A) managed to place #A350’s with @airindiain, an all @Boeing (B) widebody operator, should B now successfully place the #B737Max with the largest A narrowbody customer in the world – @IndiGo6E, it would be proof that revenge is a dish best served cold #AvGeek
@Vinamralongani @AkasaAir ‘s 19th #B737Max – VT-YAT is enroute India. Like many of its siblings, this aircraft too was originally destined for @jetairways and due to supply chain issues will arrive with 12 business class seats. These seats are sold for INR 2500 over and above the fare #AvGeek.
@Vinamralongani At 6.1 years, the average age of aircraft operated by India’s airlines is among the lowest in the world. This is largely due to the fact that the vast majority of them are brand new when inducted and acquired from foreign lessors by way of sale and leaseback deals #AvGeek.
@Vinamralongani If I were @IndiGo6E and about to place a sizable aircraft order in the range of 400+ aircraft, I would place one for 471 aircraft (or more) as that would be 1 more than the order placed by @airindiain thereby making it the largest order in #aviation history #AvGeek.
@Vinamralongani Utilizing 3 extra Additional Centre Tanks (ACTs), the @Airbus #A321neoLR is capable of flying routes of up to 4,000 nm. Case in point this UK government charter. The only #A321neoLR operator in India – @airvistara will use the aircraft to launch flights to #Mauritius #AvGeek.
