Turkish Airlines subsidiary AJet signs lease for five new Airbus A321neos

Turkish Airlines low-cost subsidiary AJet has secured five Airbus A321neo aircraft via a lease agreement with BOC Aviation, with deliveries scheduled for 2028. The narrowbodies, powered by Pratt & Whitney GTF engines, will be sourced from BOC Aviation’s existing orderbook to support AJet’s fleet renewal and network expansion across Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. This transaction strengthens the strategic relationship between AJet and the Turkish Airlines Group, adding modern, fuel-efficient capacity to replace or supplement older models. The deal aligns with sector-wide trends toward fleet modernization and sustainability, enabling AJet to enhance operational efficiency while expanding route coverage with 20% lower fuel burn and CO₂ emissions compared to previous-generation aircraft.
