Flydubai Agrees to Buy 150 Airbus A321neo Aircraft

Flydubai has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Airbus for 150 A321neo aircraft making the airline a new Airbus customer. The agreement was signed on the second day of the Dubai Airshow 2025.

The addition of the latest generation A321neo will support flydubai’s strategy to expand its network, offering customers access to new destinations with greater efficiency and comfort.

The A321neo is part of the A320neo Family, incorporating the latest technologies including new generation engines, Sharklets and cabin efficiency enablers, which together deliver more than 20% fuel savings and CO₂ reduction compared to previous generation single-aisle aircraft.

At the end of October 2025, more than 7,200 A321neo aircraft have been ordered by nearly 100 customers across the globe.

As with all Airbus aircraft, the A320 Family is already able to operate with up to 50% Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), with Airbus targeting 100% SAF capability by 2030.
