The agreement was signed at the Dubai Airshow in the presence of Fawzi Al-Muqalla, Chairman of Al-Buraq\u2019s General Assembly, and Beno\u00eet de Saint-Exup\u00e9ry, Airbus Executive Vice President of Commercial Aircraft Sales. Al-Muqalla stated that the deal marks an important step in modernizing the airline\u2019s fleet and expanding its route network, highlighting the A320neo\u2019s efficiency and flexibility, which will also support the company\u2019s strategic partner, Mediterranean Sky Airlines, in enhancing passenger services.Saint-Exup\u00e9ry welcomed Al-Buraq as a new A320 family customer, noting that the agreement reinforces the A320neo\u2019s position as the leading choice for airlines seeking fleet upgrades. The A320 family is the world\u2019s most widely used single-aisle aircraft, with more than 19,000 total orders, including the larger A321neo known for its extended range and high performance. The family delivers at least 20% fuel savings and CO\u2082 reduction compared to previous-generation aircraft, can operate with up to 50% sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), and Airbus aims for 100% SAF capability by 2030. As of October 2025, the A320neo family has secured more than 11,300 orders from 150 customers worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"803\" src=\"https:\/\/airshowsinternationalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG-20251119-WA0036-1024x803.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3216\" srcset=\"https:\/\/airshowsinternationalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG-20251119-WA0036-1024x803.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/airshowsinternationalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG-20251119-WA0036-300x235.jpg 300w, https:\/\/airshowsinternationalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG-20251119-WA0036-768x602.jpg 768w, https:\/\/airshowsinternationalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG-20251119-WA0036.jpg 1381w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ASIM, Nov 19 Al-Buraq Airlines, Libya\u2019s first private carrier, announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding to purchase 10 Airbus A320neo family aircraft, becoming Airbus\u2019s newest customer.
