JuliusWong 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2014 how many 738 MAS have in their current fleet? 54 in fleet now with two more on order (9M-MXW and 9M-MXX). Leased birds are starting to leave the fleet: 9M-FFA went to Sunwing of Canada and 9M-FFC to Turkey's SunExpress. 9M-FFB is now stored. IMO, Malaysia Airlines may also consider retiring 9M-FFD to 9M-FFF and 9M-MLD to 9M-MLI as these 9 birds have 16J/150Y configuration. Others have 16J/144Y configuration.

Geoff R. 0 Report post Posted September 1, 2014 2 more MAS 738 here: http://www.airliners.net/photo//2495595/L/ Given the date of the photo was 22nd August it's very likely the two aircraft in the photo are 9M-MXW and 9M-MXX, both of which have now been delivered.

JuliusWong 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2014 Malaysia Airlines has no more new jets to be delivered. Now we shall wait for B777 retirement. AirAsia is still receiving on average one A320 every month till end of the decade. At the same time, they are retiring ex-Zest Air plane and lease out older jet. AirAsia X is taking delivery of A330 but has slowed down considerably due to poor Q1 and Q2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flee 5 Report post Posted September 2, 2014 As far as I know, D7 has not postponed any 2014 deliveries. So far it has received five aircraft and there are another two more before the end of the year. See Q2 2014 presentation here: http://airasiax.listedcompany.com/misc/qr/presentation_slide_2Q2014.pdf Zest Air is scheduled to return its leased aircraft (those IAE V2500 engined planes) during the coming months and should end the year with only 11 aircraft in the fleet. It seems that Airasia has transferred 9M-AJF to Airasia India. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flee 5 Report post Posted September 10, 2014 RM 142,888,400 for a 12 year lease - that is RM 992,281 per month. And it excludes maintenance.... So the aircraft costs around US$ 45m for a 12 year lease. That would be pretty much what it costs to buy from Airbus. Interesting - first time we are seeing an aircraft lease transaction reported in such detail on Bursa Malaysia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
