(28/11/23)
 Hi Fly, a global wet lease specialist and
charter airline, has expanded its fleet with
the addition of two Airbus A330-200 aircraft.

Registered as 9H-HFJ
and 9H-HFK, the
two aircraft share identical features, offering a seating capacity
for 269 passengers with 18 seats in Business Class and 251 in Economy
Class (pictured).

Business Class features a double seat with 78-inch legroom and flat-bed recline, motorised
adjustability for headrests, backrests, legrests, and seatpans.

The seat also has lumbar control, lap safety belt, electrical and mechanical
adjustability and electrical massage divided into five zones, each
with two motors.

“We are delighted to add these two new Airbus A330-200
to our existing fleet,” said Antonios Efthymiou, CEO of Hi Fly,
“They are the perfect complement to our portfolio and will allow
us to offer an even wider range of options to meet the growing
demand for our services from around the world.”

With a maximum range of 15,500 kilometres, the
A330-200 family is well known for its reliability and an
operational efficiency of 99.4%.

Hi Fly resumed expansion plans after the
pandemic and is currently adding a new aircraft every
quarter, a rate that is expected to continue until the end of 2024.
