Florida-based aircraft lessor Azorra has acquired an Airbus A220-300 orderbook from Dubai Aerospace Enterprise (DAE), adding eight aircraft to its portfolio.
The transaction includes two A220-300s currently on lease to TAAG Angola Airlines, representing Azorra’s initial placements with the Angolan flag carrier. The remaining six aircraft are slated for delivery in 2027 and 2028. All units will be equipped with Pratt & Whitney PW1500G engines and marketed to airline customers worldwide.
This deal brings Azorra’s total A220-300 commitments to 15 aircraft. The lessor has been focusing on planes in the 160-seat segment, suitable for airlines pursuing lower-capacity, flexible operations.
Azorra previously ordered 22 A220 Family aircraft from Airbus in 2022, including 20 A220-300s. It has delivered units to operators such as Breeze Airways and Croatia Airlines, with leases also in place for TAAG from its own orderbook.
