Nok Air issues RFP for fleet renewal

Nok Air has issued a RFP requesting proposals for the lease of 26 aircraft; nineteen B737-800s, one B737-800BCF, two unspecified Boeing-widebodies and either four DHC-8-400s or four ATR72-600s.

The RFP is part of the airline's reorganization process in which it seeks to return to profitability. The airline was heavily impacted by the Corona-crisis and is currently under bankruptcy protection and needs to submit its turnaround plan to the Thai bankruptcy court in March. Today, Nok Air has a fleet of fourteen B737-800s and eight DHC-8-400s.
