What was announced?

In its release dated 29 October 2026, AerCap announced lease agreements with Turkish Airlines for two converted Boeing 777-300ERSF freighters. Deliveries are planned for March–September 2027; those dates describe a future schedule, not completed deliveries.

Who is affected?

The announcement primarily concerns companies following air cargo operations. The cargo-fleet agreement does not establish additional passenger frequencies, a new passenger destination or lower airfares.

KUNET travel planning assessment

When sending staff to a fair or customer visit, plan employee travel separately from product and sample logistics. Do not base a meeting date solely on news about future aircraft deliveries. Check current passenger travel and accommodation options separately from the relevant carrier's goods-transport conditions. This report does not imply that KUNET provides cargo services.
