World's Largest Aircraft Lessor Shifts Cargo Fleet Strategy
AerCap, the world’s largest aircraft lessor, has sold nine Boeing 767 freighters as part of its cargo fleet recapitalization strategy. The move comes as global air cargo demand is softening, but still growing. AerCap is investing in newer, more efficient freighters, such as the Airbus A321P2F and Boeing 777-300ERSF, to replace its aging 767 fleet. The decision may be driven by the company’s desire to capitalize on current market conditions, where demand for older aircraft is high due to production constraints.
