ACG Signs Deal to Acquire 24 Avolon Aircraft Leased to 17 Airlines

The purchase advances ACG’s plan to scale with younger, fuel‑efficient jets.

Overview

  • ACG and Avolon signed definitive agreements on February 19, 2026 for a 24‑aircraft portfolio.
  • The package includes 18 narrow‑body aircraft, 12 of them new‑technology, plus six new‑technology wide‑bodies.
  • The aircraft are leased to 17 airlines across 16 countries, bringing four new customers to ACG.
  • As of February 1, 2026, the portfolio averages about 4.5 years in age with roughly 8.9 years of lease term remaining.
  • The deal follows ACG’s 2025 purchase of 19 Avolon jets as the lessor grows a roughly 470‑aircraft platform and adds to a January order that lifted its 737 MAX backlog to 121.
