Voyager Aviation Holdings, a privately held aviation investment firm and commercial aircraft leasing company, delivered one new Airbus A220 on long-term lease to Breeze Airways. This aircraft is VAH’s first A220 and the first of five new A220s to be delivered to Breeze as part of a sale and leaseback transaction with the airline.

“We are delighted to deliver our first A220 to Breeze and to begin our partnership with the airline and its management team,” Mike Lungariello, president and CEO of VAH, said. “It also aligns with our strategy to continue to diversify and grow new airline partnerships. The performance and fuel efficiency of this A220 aircraft is a key component to the Breeze business strategy. We look forward to the airline’s future growth and success.”

“We’re thrilled to begin our partnership with Voyager Aviation with the first of five new A220s with the sale/leaseback program,” David Neeleman, founder and CEO of Breeze Airways, said. “We look forward to a long relationship as we continue to build our Airbus fleet.”

This is VAH’s first A220 and delivery from Airbus’ U.S. manufacturing site.
