Lithuania's Jump Air takes first aircraft, an ATR72-500




Jump Air (JUP, Vilnius) took delivery of its first aircraft, an ATR72-500, on December 16, 2021, nearly a year later than originally planned.

9H-AHM (msn 747), a 14.7-year-old turboprop formerly operated by Cabo Verde Airlines, FlyValan, and Buzz Aero, is owned by Elix Aviation Capital, and remains parked at Mönchengladbach airport. It will become LY-JUP in Lithuania.

The ACMI/charter start-up plans to complete its certification drive by the end of the year and launch commercial operations in January 2022.

Jump Air launched in 2020 in partnership with two Italian MRO firms, AliPlan and EU Wings. In an investor presentation from January 2021, the Lithuanian carrier said it would take its first ATR72-500 in the first quarter of 2021. It also outlined plans to add an ATR72-500(F). By 2023, the airline expected to operate a total of four ATR72-500s, including passenger and freighter aircraft.
