Kingfisher Takes Delivery Of Its First A321s

India's Kingfisher Airlines has taken delivery of four A321 narrowbody aircraft. Their first A321 was delivered to the Mumbai-based airline in late October 2006, in Hamburg, Germany. The deliveries make Kingfisher Airlines the Indian launch customer for the largest member of the A320 family.
All the aircraft are powered by International Aero Engines.
To date, Kingfisher has ordered a total of 43 A320 Family aircraft. Originally, Kingfisher had ordered four A320s in 2004... but this order was amended in 2006 to four of the larger A321 aircraft.
Earlier, Kingfisher placed firm orders for five Airbus A380s, five A330s and five A350s for use on long-range international and regional services. So far, Kingfisher's Airbus Family fleet will grow to more than 60 aircraft.
