Aircraft Fleet<br />

annual report 2010 | 22<br />

At the beginning of 2010, the Czech Airlines fleet consisted of 49 aircraft. In<br />

response to the change in the traffic network model, the fleet was proportionately<br />

modified and made more effective throughout the year; at the end of the year, it<br />

numbered 39 aircraft.<br />

One aircraft, an A319, joined the fleet in the spring of 2010, and two B737-400s were<br />

transferred to the subsidiary Company HOLIDAYS Czech Airlines in October. During<br />

the year, three aircraft were returned by Czech Airlines to their rental companies, and<br />

six were sold to external <strong>airlines</strong>.<br />

The fleet will be further developed in line with the Restructuring Plan, according to<br />

which the Company will switch to just one type of narrow-body Airbus. The fleet<br />

will also be modernized, with eight previously ordered new Airbuses replacing older<br />

machines. The financing of these aircraft has been planned so as to be as small<br />

a burden as possible on the Company.
