NEWS FLASH
Croatian ACMI specialist Trade Air is set to introduce its latest Airbus A320 into commercial service in the coming days. Registered 9A-BTM, the aircraft (pictured) was recently secured on a long-term lease and now sports a hybrid ITA Airways - Trade Air livery. Previously operated by the Italian flag carrier, the jet has been stored since last September.
Yesterday evening, the aircraft repositioned from Zagreb to Tel Aviv, where it is expected to begin flying on behalf of Israir, which already wet-leases two other Trade Air A320s. With this addition, Trade Air’s fleet now totals five A320s. One aircraft continues to operate for Italian carrier Neos, while another is flying leisure charters from Ljubljana on behalf of Slovenian tour operators.
Bravo Hrvatska!

DeleteWell, when Croatian airlines become like Avion Express, Smartlynx, then adding an A320 won't be news.
Love Trade Air ❤
ReplyDeleteGo and work there.
DeleteI work there and I love it too. Your issue is not everybody else’s issue.
DeleteI don’t think I’ve ever saw half painted fuselage. I wonder why they did it that way.
ReplyDeleteYou can see in the linked article that it was part of an ITA special livery
