FLEET - Azul to replace its B737-400Fs with A321P2Fs

According to Brazilian aviation newssite Aeroflap, Azul is set to replace its duo of Boeing B737-400SFs with two Airbus A321-200P2Fs. Both aircraft are currently in final stages of conversion at Guangzhou and will become PS-AJA (2741) and PS-AJB (2759).

As the leases of the B737s are expiring, Azul is bringing the Airbuses on board to standardise its operations as the airline is already a major Airbus-operator.

Azul currently operates a fleet that is made-up of 40 ATR72-600s, 51 A320neos, six A321neos, four A330-200s, seven A330-900s, 22 Embraer E195-E2s, 39 ERJ195s and four ERJ195s that are in use as a "phreighter", a passenger-aircraft in use for cargo-flights.
