On the first day of the Farnborough Air Show, Airbus announced it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Drukair for three A320neos and two A321XLRs. Delivery of the aircraft is expected to begin in 2030.
Drukair is planning to use its new aircraft to expand its route network, including opening-up new connections to Europe, South East Asia and Australia.
Currently, the airline's Airbus-fleet is made-up of three A319s and a single A320. It also has one ATR42-600 in the fleet.
