DALLAS — Brussels Airlines (SN) announced that it will add three more Airbus A320neo jets to its fleet by summer 2026, expanding the type's number to eight aircraft as part of the airline's ongoing fleet renewal program.
Belgium's national flag carrier and Star Aliance member took delivery of its first A320neo on November 1, 2023. The three new aircraft will replace two Airbus A319s, with a third bound for SN's fleet expansion.
Brussels Airlines’ CEO, Dorothea von Boxberg, said, “Being able to add extra brand-new aircraft is a win-win-win: by replacing older aircraft by the most fuel-efficient aircraft on the market, we reduce our impact on the environment."
The CEO added, "We are also growing our fleet, which creates extra jobs and improves connectivity for Belgium. And last but not least: the A320neo is a joy to fly, both for passengers and crew, thanks to it’s upgraded, comfortable cabins, the quietness during the flight and additional space for hand luggage.”
