Saudi’s flyadeal takes possession of 30th aircraft – Business Traveller
Saudi low-cost carrier flyadeal has taken delivery of its 30th aircraft – an Airbus A320 neo – in Toulouse.
The ‘keys’ to flyadeal’s latest acquisition named Al Taj (The Crown), were handed over at the European aircraft manufacturer’s delivery centre in southern France.
The aircraft, with a registration number of HZ-FBD, then departed with the flyadeal delegation on-board for the five-hour inaugural delivery flight to Jeddah.
The 186-seat aircraft offered in a 3-3 all-economy class configuration is the latest of a 30 A320 neo aircraft order placed by parent Saudia Group in 2019 earmarked for flyadeal operations.
Flyadeal’s current fleet is made up of the A320 family aircraft with an average age of just over two years old, with 19 A320 neos already delivered from that 2019 order.
