Miami, October 16, 2025 – Abra Group is accelerating its fleet expansion strategy, announcing agreements for up to seven Airbus A330neo widebodies and 50 additional Airbus A320neo narrowbodies, reinforcing its position as the airline group with the largest and most modern fleet order book in Latin America.

With this latest commitment, Abra’s A320neo order grows to 138 aircraft (including 88 previously announced), all to be delivered by 2032. The first A320neo featuring the Airspace cabin will enter service with Avianca later this year, offering larger XL overhead bins, dynamic LED lighting, and an exclusive three-row Premium seat configuration by Recaro.

The Group also holds firm orders for 96 Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, scheduled through 2030, giving Abra a total of 234 narrowbody aircraft on order.

To strengthen long-haul operations, Abra has signed agreements for up to seven A330neo aircraft, complementing its existing A330 fleet and enhancing connectivity between the Americas and Europe. The A330neo delivers 14% lower fuel consumption per seat and up to 60% less noise, contributing to Abra’s sustainability goals.

This follows Abra’s 2024 order for five Airbus A350-900 aircraft, set to become the Group’s long-haul flagship in the coming years.

“This announcement confirms our continued investment in expanding access to air travel and strengthening our position as one of Latin America’s leading airline groups,” said Adrian Neuhauser, CEO of Abra Group. “The A320neo order supports our fleet renewal and growth strategy, while the A330neo enhances our ability to connect Latin America with the world efficiently.”

Benoît de Saint-Exupéry, EVP Sales, Airbus Commercial Aircraft, added: “Abra’s choice of the A350, A330neo, and A320neo underscores our strong partnership and highlights Airbus’s leadership in delivering performance, efficiency, and passenger comfort across all market segments.”

With this comprehensive fleet strategy, Abra Group is positioning itself for sustained growth, operational efficiency, and an enhanced passenger experience across its network in the Americas and beyond.
