Alpha Star becomes ACJ319neo launch customer
Riyadh-based Alpha Star has become the first operator to order an Airbus ACJ319neo.
Delivery of Alpha Star’s ACJ319neo is planned for the second quarter of 2019. Selection of engines and cabin definition will follow later.
Salem Al Muzaini, CEO of Alpha Star says: “Middle East customers already recognise and appreciate the greater comfort, capacity and capability of Airbus corporate jets, so new and improved versions are a natural next step when it comes to investing for the future.”

“Being first in the region with the Airbus ACJneo Family will also help us to maintain our lead in VVIP charters,” Al Muzaini adds.
Alpha Star currently owns, manages and operates a fleet of Airbus corporate jets, comprising ACJ318s, ACJ319s, ACJ320s, an ACJ330, an ACJ340, as well as other aircraft types.
John Leahy, COO of Airbus says: “Airbus corporate jets already have the best cabins, so the greater range of the ACJneo Family will allow Alpha Star’s customers to take their lifestyles even farther. The ACJ Family’s modern features, such as fly-by-wire, centralised maintenance and carbon fibre, will also carry it farther into the future.”
More than 170 Airbus corporate jets have been sold to date, and they are flying on every continent, including Antarctica, highlighting their versatility.
