Atlantic Airways defers A320neo orders

In it's FY20 financial report, Atlantic Airways has announced it has deferred the delivery of two A320neos it has directly on order with Airbus. The aircraft will now be delivered in 2027 and 2028, instead of 2023 and 2024.

Originally, the airline had planned to operate the two alongside the two leased A320neos in the fleet but has now decided that the two will be used to replace the leased aircraft, of which the leases expire in 2027-2028.

Next to the A320neos, Atlantic Airways has a single A319 (leased-out to start-up Canarian Airways) and a single A320.
