Etihad delivery schedule 2010
 
Hi everyone.
does anybody have any info about the delivery schedule in 2010. especially for the 320.
It looks like the bottom of the 320 holding pool may be directly impacted by this variable.
Many thanks

When I was in AUH I've been told that 12 aircraft would have been delivered this year and only 1 next year. Don't know much more...sorry!
good luck

Heard different stories. The most plausible one is that one more 777 is coming by end of this year or beginning of 2010. Another 777 is due in 2010, unless its delivery will be delayed.
The triple seven fleet is already over-staffed, therefore no recruitment on this type.

Hi Nightfire
you are right about the 777

can t remember where i got this but this is an article about the 2009 schedule

“The aircraft to be delivered includes two Airbus A330-200, which will be received in January and March; two Airbus A340-600s to be joined in August and September,” said an airline official in an email reply.
Five Airbus A320-200 are expected to be inducted in January, May, October, November and December; and in the month of December one Airbus A330-300 will joining the ever expanding fleet along with one B777.
In the year 2008, the airlines inducted five aircraft, said a company document.
At the end of year 2008, the airline had 42 aircraft on its fleet which is expected to grow bigger to 52 by the end of 2011, based on scheduled deliveries from existing orders, made prior to the Farnborough Air show.

Etihad is expecting one B777 toward the end of 2009. Presently, there are no B777s planned for 2010.

B777 interviews in August for rated pilots only.

I was talking about Airbus only! As saviboy said, 5 long haul aircraft + 6 A320.
I think We will see again big numbers starting from 2012.
cheers

i think it s more like 5 A320's for 2009.
Any body knows about 2010?

A330-300's are being introduced into the fleet. 1 by the end of the year and a few more in 2010.
