Aircraft Leasing

Aircraft leasing involves the use of a lease by airlines and other aircraft operators to obtain an aircraft from either another airline or from a leasing company. With 181 billion U.S. dollars required in funding by 2023 to meet new aircraft demand, the necessity to lease is born by the need to operate an aircraft without the financial burden of having to buy them. Aircraft leasing may also be used by an airline company in providing a temporary increase in capacity.
