agreements with Thai Airways International Public Company Limited
("Thai Airways") for seven widebody aircraft comprising four Airbus
A350-900 aircraft and three Boeing 787-9 aircraft, and ten Airbus
A321NEO aircraft. The decision to procure these aircraft was made
in 2023 as part of Thai Airways' short-term fleet development

second quarter of 2024, respectively. The 787 deliveries are

"AerCap is very pleased to announce this significant transaction
with Thai Airways and to support them with both their widebody and
narrowbody fleet modernization plan as they emerge from a very
challenging period," said Peter
Anderson, the Chief Commercial Officer of AerCap. "AerCap's
business relationship with Thai Airways began in the mid-1990s with
the lease of Boeing 737-400s and Airbus A330-300s, and we have
worked closely together during both the upcycles and downcycles to
maintain and strengthen the partnership between our two companies.
We thank Thai Airways for their business and look forward to
working with them as these aircraft deliver, and beyond."
"This marks a significant milestone as we celebrate the
continuing partnership with AerCap. It's a testament to the trust
and commitment we share, as we emerge from the recent challenging
period. The addition of these new generation aircraft enhances our
ability to swiftly adapt to the evolving market demands, and not
only enhances our operational capacity but also offers exceptional
levels of comfort for our passengers." said Chai Eamsiri, the Chief
Executive Officer of Thai Airways.
