Middle East Airlines-Air Liban (MEA), the flag
carrier of Lebanon, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding for
five Airbus A320neo and five A321neo aircraft plus eight options.
“MEA is focused on continuing to grow and
improving its profitability at the same time as offering its
passengers a very luxurious service,” said MEA Chairman-Director
General, Mohamad El Hout. “Adding the A320neo to our fleet means
we can achieve all of these goals while benefitting from a 15
percent fuel saving and cost effectiveness.”
MEA operates one of the most modern Airbus fleets in
the Middle East region with four A330-200s, four A321s and nine
A320s.
The A320neo Family is a new engine option for
the A320 Family entering into service from late 2015 and
incorporates latest generation engines and large "Sharklet" wing
tip devices, which together will deliver up to 15% in fuel
savings. The A320neo NOx emissions are 50% below CAEP/6 and
the aircraft also has a considerably smaller noise footprint.
Over 8,500 A320 Family aircraft have been ordered and more than
5,100 delivered to 365 customers and operators worldwide.
