Transavia receives another quieter Airbus
On Friday, May 29, Transavia welcomed the seventeenth Airbus A321neo. The aircraft, with registration PH-YHF, arrived at Schiphol from Toulouse in the afternoon. With this latest addition, Transavia is once again taking a step in fleet renewal and towards quieter and more fuel-efficient flying.
The arrival of the seventeenth Airbus means that approximately two-thirds of Transavia's nighttime flight movements will be operated with these new, quieter aircraft. In doing so, Transavia contributes to the goal of reducing the total noise impact of Schiphol on the surrounding area by 20 percent in 2028.
Quieter and more economical
Moreover, the Airbus A321neo emits over 15 percent less CO2 per passenger than the previous generation of aircraft and reduces the so-called noise footprint by about 50 percent. In addition, the Airbus accommodates 43 extra passengers compared to the Boeing 737. This allows Transavia to carry more passengers per flight.
Over halfway in 2027
By the end of 2026, the Airbus fleet will consist of 21 aircraft. At the same time, the phasing out of the Boeing 737 continues. By 2027, Transavia will already be more than halfway through the fleet renewal. In this way, Transavia is working step by step towards a quieter, more fuel-efficient, and future-proof operation.
