Air Côte d’Ivoire returned its stored Airbus A320neo (TU-TSX) to service on 10 June 2026 after nearly one year of inactivity. The aircraft ferried from Tarbes/Lourdes, France, where it was stored since July 2025, back to Abidjan. This reactivation restores a critical asset for fleet efficiency and route network expansion, directly alleviating capacity constraints caused by the simultaneous grounding of an A319 and a Dash 8-400. The A320neo will resume line service within days, supporting the airline’s modernization drive and six weekly flights on the Abidjan–Paris axis. Operators in the sector face persistent fleet availability challenges, making reactivation of stored assets essential for maintaining service levels.
