The project encompasses the upgrading of the Promoter’s regional and long-haul fleet.

Umweltaspekte

The proposed aircraft, like the rest of the Promoter’s fleet, comply with all current and likely future international environmental standards on noise and emissions and represent latest state-of-the-art technology. The introduction of the new aircraft will further reduce noise and gaseous emissions as well as specific fuel burn per passenger-kilometre. No environmental impact assessments is required for the project, as it does not fall under either Annex I or Annex II of Directive 85/337/EEC, amended by Directives 97/11/EC and 2003/35/EC.

Auftragsvergabe

The promoter is a private company and therefore not bound by EU Directives on procurement.
