    «We are very pleased to welcome Airlink as a new customer to AerCap with the lease of three E195 aircraft», commented Peter Anderson, AerCap’s CCO. «We wish all the team at Airlink every success and look forward to working with them for many years to come», he added.

    «Airlink is on a steady growth path, expanding its network, schedule and market share», noted Rodger Foster, the airline’s CEO and Managing Director. «With AerCap’s support on these leases, we will be able to maintain this upward trajectory», he said.

    Currently, the majority of the airline’s fleet is made up of Embraer E135, E140, E170, E190 and E195 aircraft. As our partner media Aeroin points out, the latter two are used to operate the challenging flights to the island of Saint Helena, located more than 1.800 kilometres off the coast of Africa in the middle of the South Atlantic.

    «The efficiencies derived from continuity across our fleet will help us contain costs and continue providing great value and affordable air travel to our customers», Foster said in this regard.
