Air New Zealand is to buy 14 new Airbus A320 aircraft, to replace its current domestic jet fleet of 15 Boeing 737-300 aircraft. At list prices, the cost of the 14 aircraft would be more than $1 billion, but the company had secured the aircraft at a discount that reflected market conditions. As part of the agreement the airline also secured purchase rights for a further 11 aircraft. Subject to final contract, the first A320 aircraft will arrive in January 2011, with the fleet to be progressively introduced through until 2016 coinciding with the expiry of 737 aircraft leases.
