Apr 30, 2013 (newstodate): The Latvian charter and ACMI provider SmartLynx has again added an Airbus A320 aircraft to its fleet.
The carrier has received an Airbus A320-200 aircraft on a lease arrangement with Icelease, the aircraft leasing arm of the Icelandair Group.
Based at Riga Airport, SmartLynx Airlines was acquired by the Icelandair Group in 2006, but was put up for sale in 2011 as the Icelandair Group formulated the strategy of returning to core business, and is now purely Latvian-owned after a management buy-out and managed by Omar Benediktsson as CEO.
