The Maltese Airhub Aviation was able to wrest the wet lease order from Air Senegal from its competitor Hifly Malta. Since June 17, 2022, the Airbus A330neo with the registration 9H-SZN has been operated by the first named airline.
The first flight took place on June 17, 2022 from Dakar to Marseille. More flights follow from Dakar to John F. Kennedy International Airport in the United States. “We are very honored to welcome this Airbus A330-900neo to our fleet. Operating a modern aircraft of this caliber reflects Airhub Aviation's commitment to providing exceptional and quality service to our customers worldwide," said Husam Kharoufah, Vice President - Commercial at Airhub Aviation.
Air Senegal has had the 2019H-SZN operated by Hifly Malta since 9 for various reasons. The pattern was used on various routes from Dakar. Now the wet lease operator has changed within Malta, as Air Senegal has now commissioned Airhub Aviation to operate this Airbus A330neo.
