In this episode, we are joined by Matheus Piorino, Director of Customer Finance, Europe, Middle East and Africa, and Vadims Fokins, Deputy Marketing Director, Leasing at Embraer Commercial Aviation.

Some say it has never been a better time to start an airline as there is now an opportunity to disrupt previous business models and start operations without any legacy debt.

Together we discuss:

  • Right-sizing
  • Will the African market be dominated by new or pre-owned aircraft?
  • The challenge of financing fleet expansions and start ups
  • The merits of leasing versus purchasing
