Hello to A320s

Swiss airline Hello is phasing out its fleet of Boeing MD-90s and replacing them with A320s, the first of which it has already taken delivery of one of the five A320s it is expecting. The first had previously been operated by Philippine Airlines. Hello has signed five-year maintenance deal with SR Technics for the A320s, which includes provision of a dedicated consignment stock in Basle and access to its component pool on a flight-hour basis.
