US-based Aviation Capital Group (ACG) has entered a long-term deal to lease three new Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft to Poland’s LOT Polish Airlines.

Delivery of the first aircraft of the new order is scheduled to be carried out by next March.

LOT Polish Airlines CEO Rafal Milczarski said: “This aircraft is beloved by our passengers and plays a crucial role in the development of our long-haul network. With the 787-9, we will open a new chapter in our history.

“This aircraft will give as an opportunity to significantly increase the capacity on our existing, most popular routes, in addition to opening new ones.”

"With the 787-9, we will open a new chapter in our history."

The new 787-9 Dreamliners provide various features such as dimmable windows, large stow bins, modern LED lighting, higher humidity, reduced cabin altitude, cleaner air and a smoother ride than other aircraft.

ACG currently operates a portfolio of 415 owned, managed and committed aircraft, which are leased to 90 airlines worldwide.

Last month, the company had placed follow-on orders with Airbus for 35 A320 family aircraft, which include 30 A320neo, two A320ceo and three A321ceo family aircraft.

ACG has also secured an option to buy ten more A320neo aircraft.
