Airbus Finds More Clientele for the A350-900

Bigger Aircraft Needed to Lower CPS For Biggest Routes, Says Abra

Their newest sale goes to Abra Group, who recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding for 5 brand-new A350-900s to further expand its international long-haul operations and increase capacity.

Abra says they intend to offer "millions of passengers greater connectivity to new destinations on long-range routes", which would certainly be in the cards if they want to get their money's worth.

Adrian Neuhauser, CEO of Abra Group said the new aircraft would offer an unbeatable pax experience. “We are delighted to announce this agreement with Airbus. We believe the arrival of these five A350s, which offer a best-in-class passenger experience, are more fuel efficient and have a lower cost per seat than competitor aircraft, will allow us to strengthen our commitment to make travel more accessible and responsible. 

This also means better prices for customers with better connectivity between our continent and Europe, and will further consolidate Abra as one of the largest and most competitive air transportation groups in Latin America. The aircraft selection is consistent with the strategic announcements we have done this year and further executes on our long term vision.”

Benoît de Saint-Exupéry, Executive Vice President overseeing Airbus' Commercial Aircraft Sales, said the buy was a good endorsement of the A350. "We are delighted to see the Abra Group endorsing the A350 to continue its mission of strengthening air connectivity between Latin America and the rest of the world. The selection of the A350 reaffirms the aircraft as the undisputed leader in long-haul air travel.”
