Volaris (Y4, México City International) has signed long-term lease agreements with the Air Lease Corporation (ALC) for two A321-200 (sl)s. The twinjets, powered by IAE V2533-A5 motors, are sourced from ALC’s order book with Airbus (AIB, Toulouse Blagnac) and are scheduled for delivery in spring this year.

“ALC is pleased to support Volaris with the introduction of the very first A321s in their fleet," John L. Plueger, President and Chief Operating Officer of Air Lease Corporation, said. "These aircraft will play an important role in addressing slot constraints out of México City International Airport, allowing Volaris to efficiently serve Mexico’s growing economy and demand for air travel."

The Mexican LCC is an all-Airbus operation with eighteen A319-100s, and thirty-two A320-200s in its fleet.
