Leading turboprop lessor Abelo has confirmed three additional ATR 72-600 options from the agreement signed at the Dubai Airshow in 2023. This milestone further strengthens Abelo's commitment to modern, efficient regional aviation and reinforces the strong partnership between Abelo and ATR.
With these three additional options now exercised, Abelo has ordered 36 firm aircraft to this day, and still holds nine options and purchase rights. Deliveries are scheduled for 2027, expanding Abelo's skyline and supporting its mission to provide sustainable, cost-effective connectivity.
Abelo has been very successful with its orderbook, with a third of all firm commitments being either placed or delivered, with an increased global footprint with airlines like SKY Express, Aegean (Greece), and SATENA (Colombia). Earlier this year, Abelo also supplied Ethiopian Airlines with two brand-new ATR turboprops.
Steve Gorman, Chief Executive Officer of Abelo, commented: "Our decision to confirm these additional ATR 72-600s reflects our confidence in the ATR asset and its relevance for regional operators worldwide. These aircraft will enable us to continue offering our airline partners the most efficient and environmentally responsible solutions, as we continue to hold very strategic slots over the next three years."
Nathalie Tarnaud Laude, Chief Executive Officer of ATR, added: "Abelo's decision to further expand its ATR fleet reflects the strength of our partnership and our shared commitment to providing regional airlines with efficient, modern turboprops. As a lessor with deep engagement across diverse markets, Abelo offers airlines flexible pathways to operate new ATR aircraft. Their continued confidence supports our ambition to deliver responsible, affordable connectivity to communities worldwide."
