Re: AirBlue Acquiring Two Brand New Airbus A320s on Lease
Slightly off from the topic, it has been heard that air blue might replace their A343s as they are not giving the results that were expected may be due to regular technical issues.

No idea but a wild guess, either they plan to go to an all A320 fleet or replace the A343 with relatively new A345 or A346 .

Re: AirBlue Acquiring Two Brand New Airbus A320s on Lease
Abbas is right, the best replacement would be 330s. These 343s have been a disaster.
The new 320s though is a positive move.

AirBlue Adds New Aircraft
Airblue, the fastest growing airline, will be adding two Airbus A320-200 aircraft in late 2013 and early 2014. Both aircraft are brand new and will include factory-fitted Sharklets. This advanced end-of-wing Sharklet system has been developed by Airbus, designed to enhance the eco-efficiency and payload-range performance of the A320 Family. Importantly, Sharklets can also save over 730t less Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions annually per aircraft. Airblue is the first Pakistani airline to use this technology.

^ Airblue, isn't a fastest growing airline, for few years they are just replacing their fleet, 2 return and 2 join, growth will be considered if they expand their fleet and the network

Re: AirBlue Acquiring Two Brand New Airbus A320s on Lease
One of my friends in Airblue told me that the A340s will be returned to the lessor on the 17th of this month . Manchester operations will continue with the A320 twice weekly.
