Agreement

Aer Lingus has declared that it has signed a lease deal for two new Airbus A320neo aircraft. This new generation aircraft will support the airline’s sustainability program. Aer Lingus, as part of IAG, has pledged to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 and has committed to powering 10 percent of its flights operating sustainable aviation fuel by 2030.

The deal had been in the works for months. On May 12th, Air France-KLM and IndiGo implemented their codeshare deal, which they declared in December last year. This permits each airline to access several additional routes in each other’s networks and offers passengers the convenience of more options.
