Shaheen Air International (Karachi International) is planning to add five more A320-200 aircraft to its present fleet of two by the end of this year with a further five expected during 2014/15. Thus far, the first five aircraft have been identified as two ex-Windjet (Catania) A320s (c/n 542 and 877) along with three former Kingfisher Airlines (Mumbai International) A320s (c/n 3012, 3089 and 3270). Thereafter, the twelve A320s will be used to replace the airline's fleet of nine B737-400s. According to industry analysts familiar with the airline's operations, once the refleeting exercise is complete, a partnership with an established south-east Asian Low Cost Carrier will be sought, likely either AirAsia (AK, Kuala Lumpur International), Jetstar Airways (JQ, Melbourne Tullamarine) or Tiger Airways (Singapore Changi), in order to gain connections via their respective hubs to the South East Asian & Australian markets.
