Thomas Cook Group has signed a firm order for 12 Airbus A321s, as a first step of its single aisle fleet harmonization and renewal plan which is based on the A320 Family. The aircraft will be fitted with the latest fuel saving wing-tip devices, known as Sharklets.
The new aircraft are scheduled to be delivered from 2014, together with options to purchase further A320 family aircraft from 2015.
In addition to the firm order, Thomas Cook Group plans to lease A320 Family aircraft from operating lessors.
