SSJ в эксплуатации (CityJet)

CItyJet will showcase its new Sukhoi SuperJet at the world's biggest airshow in Farnborough next month as both the airline and the manufacturer aim to lure customers for the aircraft.

Dublin-based CiyJet is the first European customer using the SuperJet, and hopes the aircraft will help it secure more wet lease business.

CityJet is hoping to secure so-called wet lease customers, where CityJet would operate flights on their behalf using the aircraft. It already has a substantial wet lease business through its Blue 1 subsidiary in Scandinavia.

CityJet boss Pat Byrne told the Irish Independent that he hopes to have at least one wet lease customer signed for the SuperJet by the end of the year.

The airline will take delivery of another SuperJet next week, and another in October, with more joining its fleet next year.

Maiden Scheduled Service For New CityJet Superjet SSJ100

CityJet, Ireland’s European regional carrier, introduced its new Superjet SSJ100 aircraft into service on one of its scheduled routes today when it departed Cork for La Rochelle in France.

Passengers on the scheduled Summer route were able to enjoy the luxury leather interior and greater legroom which Ireland’s Euro16 players sampled on their journey to and from France. CityJet, official airline partner of the Football Association of Ireland, made the SSJ100 available to carry the “Boys in Green.”

CityJet, which operates routes to La Rochelle and Nantes from Cork Airport, is the first European airline to operate the Superjet SSJ100 in a deal that is worth over $1 billion. The 98-seat Superjet is a joint venture between Finmeccanica of Italy and Sukhoi Civil Aircraft Corporation of Russia. It received its European certification in 2012. CityJet has orders for 15 and options on a further 16.

Pat Byrne, Executive Chairman of CityJet, said: “We are delighted that today we operated our maiden scheduled service for the Superjet SSJ100. We have flown the aircraft on charter services and of course in carrying the football team to Paris and back. We are very proud of the aircraft and we look forward to introducing our customers to its high levels of comfort and efficiency in the coming years”.
