EasyJet, kulandela ukugunyazwa kwabanikazi bamasheya, inezinhlelo eziqinile ze- imikhumbi emikhulu ukunwetshwa ngokuqinisekiswa kwe-oda lendiza yoMndeni ye-Airbus A157neo engu-320 ngaphezulu, kuhlanganiswe namalungelo okuthenga ayi-100.
Ukuthengwa kwempahla, okumiselwe ukwenzeka phakathi konyaka wezimali ka-2029 no-2034, kuhlanganisa izindiza ezingama-56 A320neo nezingu-101 A321neo. Ukwengeza, ama-oda angu-35 akhona e-A320neo azoguqulelwa kwehlukile kwe-A321neo enkulu.
Lokhu kunyakaza kwamasu kuvumela i-easyJet ukuthi ikhulise umthamo wayo ngokwethula izindiza eziningi futhi ishintshe ngokushesha kumamodeli amakhulu. Lolu hlelo luhambisana nenjongo yenkampani yezindiza yokuthatha indawo yama-A319 amadala kanye nengxenye yezindiza ze-A320ceo, kuthuthukiswe ukukhula ngendlela efanele kuyilapho kuthuthukisa ukusebenza kahle kwezindleko nokuzinza.
Njengamanje izishaya isifuba ngezindiza zoMndeni ze-A69neo ezingama-320, inkampani yezindiza isivele ine-oda le-Airbus lezindiza ezingaphezu kuka-158 ze-A320neo Family ngonyaka wezimali ka-2029.
Njengoba kunezikhala ezilinganiselwe zokulethwa kwemakethe yezindiza ezinomzimba omncane kuze kube ngu-2029, lesi siqinisekiso sivikela izindawo zesikhathi esizayo, sisekela isu lenkampani yezindiza ukugcina izinga layo, esikhundleni sezindiza ezithatha umhlalaphansi, kanye nokwenza lula ukukhula.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, amalungelo okuthenga angu-100 anikeza ukuguquguquka ukuze kunwetshwe okwengeziwe ngokusekelwe emigqeni yesikhathi yokulethwa.
Ngale kokunwetshwa, ukwamukelwa kwe-easyJet kwalezi zindiza ezithuthuke kakhulu kwezobuchwepheshe kudlala indima ebalulekile ekuphishekeleni kwayo ukuzuza ukukhishwa kwe-net-zero carbon.
Imikhumbi engenayo ithembisa ukuthuthukiswa kokusebenza kahle kukaphethiloli okusukela ku-13% kuya ku-30% uma kuqhathaniswa nezindiza ezizozishintsha, okunomthelela omkhulu ekusimameni kwemvelo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, lezi zindiza ezintsha zinomsindo oncishisiwe kakhulu, zithule ngokuphindwe kabili kunamamodeli amadala eziwashintshayo.
Ukutshalwa kwezimali kulezi zindiza ezithuthukisiwe kubeka i-easyJet ekukhuleni kwamasu futhi kugcizelela ukuzibophezela kwayo ekuzibophezeleni kwezemvelo kanye nokwenza ngcono imboni yezokundiza.
UJohan Lundgren, oyi-CEO ye-easyJet, uzwakalise ukujabula ngokuqinisekisa umyalo omkhulu:
"Sijabule kakhulu ngokukwazi ukuqinisekisa lo myalelo obalulekile, ongenzi nje kuphela ukuthi i-easyJet ikwazi ukushintsha indiza yayo endala ifake indiza esebenza kahle kakhudlwana, okuyingxenye eyinhloko ye-net zero roadmap yethu kodwa futhi kusinikeza ikhono lokukhula ngendlela efanele, okuhlanganisa nethuba elibalulekile. lokho kuletha ukuthuthukiswa. Ngalo myalo, i-easyJet izokwazi ukuqhubeka nokuqinisa isikhundla sayo sokuhola ezikhumulweni zezindiza eziyinhloko zaseYurophu, ngakho-ke sibheke ngabomvu ukusebenza ngokubambisana ne-Airbus eminyakeni ezayo.”
