Airbus Corporate Jets has delivered an ACJ319neo from the final assembly line in Hamburg, Germany, to an undisclosed new private customer in Western Europe, the company announced yesterday. The aircraft will be managed by Jet Aviation and available for charter flights.
“This demonstrates the value of the ACJ319neo for the business aviation market,” said Airbus Corporate Jets president Benoit Defforge. “The aircraft’s latest-technology engines and Sharklet [winglets] enable even longer intercontinental flights in the widest single-aisle cabin while delivering at least 20 percent fuel savings” over the previous ACJ319ceo model.
The just-delivered ACJ319neo joins more than 2,200 A320neo and A321neo aircraft already in operation with airlines globally, as well as some 210 ACJs that are in service worldwide. Airbus also said it has established a worldwide network of field service, spares, and training centers, complemented by services tailored to the needs of private jet operators.
