ABL Aviation, a global independent aircraft investment management firm, has completed the delivery of a second Boeing 737 MAX 8 to TUI Airline, concluding a two-aircraft agreement between the two companies. The first aircraft under this mandate was delivered in December 2025, marking the start of the partnership between ABL Aviation and TUI Airline. Powered by CFM LEAP‑1B27 engines, the Boeing 737 MAX 8 supports TUI Airline’s focus on operating a modern, efficient, and environmentally aligned fleet. The aircraft offers lower fuel burn, reduced emissions, and improved operational performance, strengthening TUI Airline’s ability to serve its network with an aircraft optimised for both economic and passenger comfort.
“This second delivery builds on the successful execution of our first transaction with TUI Airline in December,” said Ali Ben Lmadani, Founder and CEO of ABL Aviation. “Working with a group as prominent as TUI Airline reflects the confidence placed in our team, our execution standards, and our approach to relationship-driven asset management. We look forward to continuing to support TUI Airline as they modernise and strengthen their fleet with next-generation aircraft.”
“The delivery of these two Boeing 737 MAX 8 – our 50th and 55th for TUI Airline – marks another important step in the continued modernisation of our fleet,” said Marco Ciomperlik, CEO of TUI Airline. “The aircraft’s enhanced fuel efficiency and performance directly support our commitment to operating a younger, more eco-efficient fleet while maintaining the high levels of comfort and reliability our customers expect. We value our partnership with ABL Aviation and appreciate their collaborative approach in supporting our fleet strategy.”
This transaction highlights ABL Aviation’s growing capability in delivering tailored aircraft leasing solutions for airlines globally and reinforces the firm’s ability to manage cross‑border aircraft transactions with precision. With the completion of this two-aircraft mandate, ABL Aviation further extends its portfolio of airline partners and continues to build long-term relationships with carriers seeking structured financing and asset management strategies.
