U.K. budget carrier EasyJet has firmed up purchase rights for 27 Airbus A320ceos, for delivery between 2015 and 2018, to tap into “disciplined growth” opportunities. All-Airbus operator EasyJet already flies a fleet of 225 A320s and is now expecting to grow to 304 aircraft by 2019, although this could be decreased to 204 or increased to 316 aircraft depending upon market conditions. This growth will be supported by the 27 newly ordered aircraft, along with the 35 A320ceos and 100 A320neos it ordered in June last year.
