The airline is due to take at least three A321neos as part of an order for 13 Airbus narrowbody aircraft that it placed last month, with the remainder primarily A320neos. These types will replace the current fleet of A320s that Air New Zealand uses on short-haul international flights to the Pacific Islands and Australian east coast cities.

The 737 was selected “after a very fair process,” says Monarch executive chairman Iain Rawlinson.
