PARIS (Reuters) – U.S. aircraft leasing firm Jackson Square Aviation has placed its first direct order with Airbus for 50 A320neo Family aircraft, it said in a statement on Wednesday.
The deal is the lessor’s first direct order with Airbus, making it a new costumer of the European group.
Such a deal would be worth around $2.7 billion after typical industry discounts, according to delivery price estimates from UK consultancy Cirium Ascend.
