Air Cote d'Ivoire in Talks With Airbus and Bombardier



Ivory Coast's national carrier Air Cote d'Ivoire is in discussions with Airbus and Bombardier to renew its existing fleet and provide new aircraft for a planned expansion, the company's chief executive said.


The company, which launched last year, currently services 17 destinations in West Africa with its fleet of four leased aircraft, including three Airbus A-319s and an Embraer 170.


It will open domestic routes next month with two Q400 NextGen aircraft purchased from Bombardier last year.


"We have retained the two companies with whom we continue the discussions, and at the end of October we'll take a decision on our future fleet," CEO Rene Decurey said.


Air Cote d'Ivoire plans to add three more aircraft by 2016, he said, adding that Boeing and Embraer had also been involved in the initial talks to supply planes for the expansion through either leases or purchases.


Decurey said the company plans to raise its capital from 25 billion CFA francs ($48 million) to 65 billion CFA francs by the end of the year.


The Ivorian state will inject 20 billion CFA francs and the West African Development Bank will become a shareholder with an injection of 2 billion to 5 billion CFA francs, he said.


Goldenrod will maintain its 15 percent stake in the new arrangement, but Air France has not yet decided whether it will inject capital into the airline, he said.

Wow! Stunning! Hilton seems to be taking Africa by storm. Just a couple of years back, they opened the first ever in Eswatini.

I am really tempted to book the next ethiopian airlines ticket and relive your journey. The pictures shared with the post also reflect that you truly enjoyed the travel. Great post! I also like the fact that you have covered nuances about the food and entertainment service through the pictures. It helps people know what to expect on their travel by this airline.
