Practically ready to fly since the end of 2020, the latest A330neo from Azul Linhas Aéreas performed last Thursday (16) a transfer flight lasting 1h30 between Chateauroux (CHR) and Toulouse (TLS) after being stored practically for 9 months, indicating that its delivery could take place soon.
It is worth ing that, since December last year, Azul had already carried out the acceptance flight of its fifth A330neo, but the company preferred to postpone its shipment to Brazil in view of the unfavorable scenario, especially for international destinations.
Still with the F-WWYO test registration, this will be the last of 5 aircraft ordered for the A330-900neo and will receive the registration PR-ANV. The arrival of another A330neo is good news, as Azul recently announced the increase in the offer of daily flights to Portugal from December, in addition to the expectation of resumption of pre-pandemic levels for flights to the United States via Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
About to receive the 13th aircraft of the A330 family, Azul also is close to receiving its first unit of the Airbus A350, a model that was previously in the plans, however, Azul opted to receive the Airbus A330-900neo, which may also indicate its expansion into new international markets with the reheating of the entire airline sector, mainly in Brazil.
