FLEET - Transavia receives sixteenth Airbus from Toulouse

Transavia welcomed its sixteenth Airbus A321neo on Thursday, May 7. With this, the airline is taking another step towards quieter and more fuel-efficient flight operations. The aircraft, with registration PH-YHP, was delivered from the Airbus factory in Toulouse.

Keeping flying accessible

Transavia wants to keep flying accessible to a wide audience. Therefore, the airline is investing in more efficient and quieter flying.

The Airbus A321neo emits on average 15 percent less CO2 per passenger than the Boeing 737 that is being phased out. It also produces approximately 50 percent less noise. In doing so, it contributes to reducing noise pollution around airports, such as Schiphol. By now, more than half of the Transavia fleet at Amsterdam Airport consists of quieter Airbus aircraft. At the same time, ten Boeing 737s have already been phased out.

In addition, the Airbus A321neo seats 232 passengers; 43 more than the Boeing 737-800. As a result, Transavia can carry more passengers without flying more frequently.
