Bamboo Airways (QH, Hanoi Noi Bai International) has taken delivery of its first A321-200neo with VN-A588 (msn 8195) having been ferried from Hamburg Finkenwerder to Hanoi Noi Bai International via Delhi International on December 29/30.
The Airbus narrowbody is leased from GECAS and was originally destined for the now-defunct Primera Air Scandinavia. According to Skyliner Aviation, the aircraft still features the Scandinavian carrier's livery and is therefore in the process of being repainted ahead of its induction into service.
Though it has yet to secure its Air Operator's Certificate (AOC) let alone commence flight operations, Bamboo Airways has already assembled a fleet that consist of one A319-100 and two A320ceo, all sourced from FTAI Aviation, and two A320-200s wet-leased from Freebird Airlines (FH, Istanbul Airport).
