Lion Group expands fleet by 16 aircraft in 1H2016, surpassing the 250 aircraft milestone
Indonesia-based Lion Group expanded its fleet by 16 aircraft in 1H2016, cementing its position as the largest airline group in Southeast Asia. Lion now has a fleet of more than 250 aircraft while its rival AirAsia - the region's second largest group - has under 200 aircraft based in Southeast Asia.
However a net gain of 16 aircraft over the last six months marks a slowdown for Lion. The group's fleet grew by 59 aircraft in 2015 and 39 aircraft in 2014.
None of Lion Group's five airline subsidiaries or affiliates added more than five aircraft in 1H2016, resulting in relatively modest capacity expansion. The rate of expansion will likely pick up in 2H2016 but not approach previous levels.
