Air Malta has
signed an agreement to lease out an Airbus A320 aircraft to Monarch Airlines
for a period of 19 months.
The contract
with the privately-owned British airline commenced at the end of April 2014 and
will end in the beginning of November 2015.
Air Malta’s
Chief Commercial Officer Philip Saunders was very positive about working with
another EU-based airline.

“The leasing
section has been very active over the past couple of months. We made sure we
secured two aircraft leases in line with the EU-approved restructuring plan,”
said Mr Saunders.
Meanwhile, Air
Malta has just taken re-delivery of one Airbus A320 aircraft at the end of its
lease with Interjet of Mexico. This aircraft, which had an Interjet livery, was
repainted in the first Air Malta livery as part of the airline’s celebrations
of its 40th anniversary since the start of its flying operations.
In line with the
Restructuring Plan Air Malta currently operates with a fleet of 10 aircraft, 6
Airbus A320 and 4 Airbus A319.
