Freighter Trends – Narrowbody Freighter Conversion Outlook

In the March issue of Freighter Trends, our Group Chief Commercial & Marketing Officer, Pascal Parant, offers an outlook on the narrowbody freighter conversion sector.

Parant comments, “The A321 freighter fleet is expanding, but Vallair has recently noticed an operator returning a significant portion of its fleet due to a lack of market demand. While there are conversion slots available, the number of suitable aircraft is limited.

“Passenger demand remains so high that it is often more profitable to extend leases, or transition aircraft to another passenger airline, rather than convert them to freighters. The market isn’t quite there yet, but we know it’s only a matter of time.”
