The first ever Airbus A220 for a Romanian airline when the first of 22 of the type was delivered to Animawings.
The A220-300 was delivered to Bucharest from the Montreal production line and is one of four being financed from US-based Lessor Azorra.
Powered by two Pratt & Whitney PW1500G engines, the A220 will help the airline with its growth plans after majority shareholder Aegean sold its share to holiday company Memento Group.
Animawings co-owner Marius Pandel said: “This advanced aircraft enables us to commit to delivering connectivity to sought-after destinations such as Dubai, Cluj, Iasi, Oradea, Paris, Larnaca or Stockholm,” adding “Our partnership with Azorra has been instrumental in helping us take this significant step,”.
Azorra chief John Evans commented: “With its unmatched performance and efficiency, this aircraft is perfectly suited to support Animawings’ growth objectives and will play a vital role in the future of aviation in Romania,”.
