Virgin Atlantic has signed a sale and leaseback agreement with AerCap for six new Airbus A330-900 aircraft.
“We have invested billions to fly the youngest, most efficient fleet across the Atlantic,” said Virgin Atlantic CFO Ansar Hussain. “The A330neo aircraft entering our fleet this year will debut larger premium and upper cabins, as well as more retreat suites — our most spacious suites yet.”
“The A330neo is one of the most sought-after aircraft globally, combining advanced technology with exceptional efficiency,” said AerCap chief commercial officer Peter Anderson.
Deliveries are scheduled to commence second-quarter 2026 through fourth-quarter 2027.
