Constellation International Airlines will take delivery of its first of two Airbus A320s on 13 May, becoming the first Belgian airline to operate the type. The aircraft, which will replace Boeing 727-200Advs, are being leased from International Lease Finance for $340,000 a month each, says the airline. The charter airline may, however, have to lease out the second A320, as much of its flying had been allocated to tour operator Hello Holidays, which has so far failed to meet advance payments.
