On day three of the 2015 Paris Air Show, Airbus logged another 128 orders for its fast-selling A320neo program. In the largest of three deals collectively valued at around $13.6 billion, Synergy Aerospace Corporate, which is the largest shareholder in South American airline group Avianca, signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) calling for 62 A320neos
The twinjets will go to the group’s Brazilian subsidiary Avianca Brasil. Once the agreement is firmed up, it will take the number of Neos ordered in Latin America to 407, spread among seven carriers.
Separately, an undisclosed Asian airline signed an MoU for 60 A320neos. This agreement is worth $6.4 billion.
Vietnamese carrier VietJetAir placed a firm order for six additional A321ceos. The contact, worth approximately $682 million, was signed in Paris by the airline’s president and CEO Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao.
