Mr.Bandit 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2017 How many AK A320neos to be assembled in Tianjin? besides than the neos assembled in Toulouse? Currently 2 A320neos are assembled at TLS ; 9M-AGI and 9M-AGJ. I highly assume that later delivery of neos after this will be from Tianjin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flee 5 Report post Posted October 26, 2017 How many AK A320neos to be assembled in Tianjin? besides than the neos assembled in Toulouse? I have no idea as this is the job of Airbus production planning! The Neo's delivered so far: From TLS - AGA, AGD, AGE, AGF, AGG From XFW - NEO, AGB, AGH From TSN - AGK I think most of the Airasia aircraft will be made in TLS, with aircraft from other plants supplementing the deliveries if TLS ran out of delivery slots for particular delivery dates.

flee 5 Report post Posted November 6, 2017 UPDATE: Malaysia AirAsia X To Get New Planes From 2018 As It Expands In N. Asia, India KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 06) -- AirAsia X said Monday it will take delivery of two new aircraft next year, which could be deployed in North Asia and China, and its new route to India is likely to help boost passenger load factor as the long-haul unit of Malaysian budget carrier AirAsia seeks to expand network in Asia. AirAsia X is expected to receive up to four new aircraft a year beginning 2019 as it ramps up capacity after receiving two new planes by end of 2018, Chief Executive Benyamin Ismail said at a news conference. "Next year, we will introduce two new India routes in the second half, as well as new routes to Japan and China," he said.

As they are meant for shorter flights, I can foresee reduced seat pitch and reduced cushion thickness...

Tom/PER 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2017 Here's an interesting one I've picked up on Skyliner. It looks like FD/Thai Air Asia is shedding some capacity... A320-216SL c/n 5918 ferried CRK-HRB 30/11/17 as B-8980 on delivery to LongJiang Airlines ex OE-IGI/HS-BBK. Surprised this didn't get transferred within the group. I also know Lion Air has shed a couple of B739ER's recently to either a Korean or Japanese outfit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flee 5 Report post Posted December 3, 2017 (edited) Airasia have in the past done some profit taking on their frames if the right price is offered for their aircraft. I think FD should have no problems with capacity as they have just taken delivery of two new aircraft in November (one CEO and one NEO).

leon t 0 Report post Posted December 4, 2017 Air Asia X last friday also announced that they are cutting back capacity to Australia by up to 25% - 30% from 2018. This will free up some of the A333s for its expansion into China and India in the interim before the new planes arrives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flee 5 Report post Posted January 1, 2018 Here is the state of play for 2017 - I have created a Google spreadsheet for this year. Please Click Here for 2017 Aircraft Deliveries to MAB Group, AirAsia Group & Malindo/Batik Malaysia It has been a huge year for the Airasia Group - Airasia Malaysia expanded its fleet to 90 aircraft. I am sure big celebrations will be held when it expands to 100 in 2018! For Malindo Air/Batik Air Malaysia, it was a quiet year of consolidation - but they still managed to add some B738s at ATR-72s. For MAB, the beginning of a new era came with the arrival of the A359's. These aircraft will take over the flagship KUL-LHR route in 2018. I would like to thank all those who have contributed valuable information to this thread throughout the year! 2018 should be another year of hectic deliveries. See you all again in the 2018 thread!
