Air Lease Corporation (AL - Free Report) announced a long-term lease placement for a solitary Airbus A320-200 jet with HiSky Moldova. The aircraft is scheduled to be delivered this September.

Notably, this is the second lease agreement pertaining to such aircraft to be inked by Air Lease with HiSky Moldova. Earlier this month, Air Lease announced that it will deliver the first Airbus A320-200 aircraft to HiSky Moldova in July. The addition of the jets, equipped with all modern amenities, will likely enhance the flying experience of HiSky Moldova’s passengers and help the carrier generate additional traffic.

Notably, Air Lease’s impressive fleet has made it one of the leading leasers of commercial jets to airline players.  Recently, Air Lease delivered a new Airbus A320-200neo jet to Atlantic Airways, the national carrier of the Faroe Islands. Notably, the delivery was made on long-term lease.

This was the second A320-200 neo jet that is powered by CFM International LEAP-1A26 engines to be delivered to Atlantic Airways by Air Lease. Notably, the first such fuel-efficient aircraft was delivered by the company in March 2019 to the national carrier of the Faroe Islands.
