Flydubai Plans to Purchase New Aircraft

The company "Flydubai" plans to expand its fleet, considering the purchase of no less than 200 aircraft.

According to information from Bloomberg agency, "Flydubai" is exploring the possibility of purchasing no less than 200 aircraft, and is also considering the option for an additional 100 jets, citing unnamed sources. Some of the largest airlines in the Middle East are currently preparing to renew their fleets with hundreds of planned purchases, which will support the region as a key driving factor for Boeing and Airbus.

"Flydubai" announced last week that it is studying a custom order for aircraft, noting that a new order is expected to be announced during the airshow in Dubai in November this year. The company reported to "Emirates Today" that it expects to receive between 10 and 12 Boeing 737 Max aircraft from its current orders this year.
