(CAPA FREE) Saudi Arabian Airlines, Saudi Arabias national airline, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding for 22 A320 aircraft as part of its modernisation plans. The agreement allows Saudia to increase the order by eight further A320s.
The agreement marks a period of rapid expansion of the aviation market in the region with Saudia experiencing unprecedented demand for air travel.
This is the first Saudi Arabian order with Airbus in two decades. Previously, Saudi Arabian Airlines were the launch customer for the Airbus A300-600, which was delivered in 1984.
"Investing in a new fleet of Airbus single aisle aircraft enables us to benefit from an aircraft that is unquestionably right for our needs and for those of our passengers, one that combines cabin comfort with operational cost-efficiency, while enabling us to grow", said Khalid al Molhem, Director General Saudi Arabian Airlines.
