“We are pleased to announce this agreement to deliver our third Airbus A320 family aircraft to HiSky,” said David Beker, Senior Vice President of Air Lease Corporation.  “This young A320 will be joining HiSky’s all-ALC leased fleet of A319/A320 aircraft.  Our team is honoured that the leadership of HiSky has chosen to collaborate exclusively with ALC to launch their airline this year under challenging circumstances and we believe HiSky is well-positioned for long-term growth and success.”

“We are happy with the progress of our operations and the response that we got from our core markets.  We launched the sales and flights from our base in Chisinau, Moldova and now we are one week away from starting flight operations in our second base: Cluj, Romania.  We are grateful to Air Lease Corporation, our trustful partner, that has appropriate solutions and expertise to sustain our growth,” said Iulian Scorpan, Chief Executive Officer of HiSky Moldova.
