Crawly-based leasing and charter specialist Smart Aviation has brokered an ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance) lease deal between Air Arabia Maroc and Lithuanian charter airline GetJet for an Airbus A320.
Air Arabia Maroc, part of the Air Maroc Group, contacted Smart Aviation after a delivery delay, which meant they urgently needed an Airbus A320.
Following non-stop negotiations, Smart Aviation was able to secure a Latvian-registered Airbus A320 from GetJet Airlines, one of their most trusted airline partners.
Smart Aviation’s Managing Director Mark Hawkins said: “The market for ACMI is currently very tight and time was against us, so I am delighted that we were able to secure the perfect option for Air Arabia Maroc. GetJet Airlines have been a trusted partner of Smart Aviation’s since they were founded in 2016, and we can always rely on them to deliver an efficient and timely service, with well-maintained aircraft and excellent crew. I am very pleased that the ACMI operation is running very smoothly”.
The leased Airbus A320 will operate with Air Arabia Maroc, the largest low-cost carrier in the Middle East and North Africa until the delayed aircraft is delivered.
