Chair Airlines to add A320

In the last quarter of this year, Chair Airlines is planning to add its first A320. The airframe is currently unknown but the aircraft will replace the airline's A319 HB-JOH (3589) which has been damaged beyond repair during maintenance at Naples in July last year.

To cover for the loss of capacity, Chair is wet-leasing a B737-800 (SP-ESE, 30688) from major shareholder Enter Air until the A320 is delivered. The airline's own fleet consists now of two A319s (HB-JOG, 3818 and HB-JOJ, 3024).

Chair Airlines was launched in 2019 as the successor of Germania Flug. It has its base at Zürich and flies to twenty destinations, the majority of them being seasonal or charter-flights. Since the rebranding in 2019, Enter Air is a majority shareholder, holding 49% of the shares in the Swiss airline.
