Avolon and Qatar-based Lesha Bank announced on September 28, 2026 that they had agreed the sale of a portfolio of 33 commercial aircraft. The aircraft are leased to 25 airlines, and the transaction remains subject to customary closing conditions.
Lesha says the portfolio will be managed by Lesha Aviation Services and will increase its managed aviation fleet to more than 75 aircraft after completion. Neither party disclosed the transaction value in its announcement.
This is a sale of aircraft with existing leases, so it does not mean the 33 aircraft will immediately change operating airlines. Current lessees continue under their respective agreements, while final timing and portfolio composition remain subject to closing.
