Peach Picks Airbus A321LR for Medium-haul Ops
Japan's pioneering low-cost carrier will become Asia's launch customer for the long range platform in 2020

Peach Aviation signed an agreement with Airbus on Tuesday at the Farnborough Airshow to purchase two A321LRs, which will make the Japanese low-cost carrier (LCC) the first in the region to operate the long-range aircraft. The order represents a revision of a purchase agreement signed in 2016 for 10 A321neos, with two of the 10 orders now being upgraded to the LR version. Deliveries of these neos and LRs are scheduled to commence in 2020 (both LRs are expected that year), coinciding with the planned launch of Peach’s mid-range LCC service, and continue through 2022.
