Garuda has finalised an order with Airbus for the purchase of 25 A320 Family aircraft, firming up an agreement announced during the Paris Air Show in June. The order, which includes 15 standard A320s and 10 A320neo aircraft, makes Garuda Indonesia a new A320 customer. The aircraft will be operated by Garuda’s regional subsidiary, Citilink.
“This order will ensure that Citilink is equipped to realise its full potential,” said Emirsyah Satar, President & CEO of Garuda Indonesia. “We are confident that these modern, eco-efficient aircraft will enable us to win an important share of the fast-growing budget market in Indonesia, while providing our passengers with a high quality product.”
“We are pleased to welcome Garuda Indonesia as a new customer for the A320 Family,” said John Leahy, Airbus’ Chief Operating Officer – Customers. “Citilink will benefit from the proven reliability, passenger appeal and low operating costs that make the A320 Family the single aisle market leader. We look forward to providing the airline with every support as they introduce their new fleet.”
