Norwegian to purchase 11 CFM LEAP-1B spare engines

Norwegian has entered into an agreement to purchase 11 LEAP-1B spare engines from CFM International. These fuel-efficient engines will support Norwegian’s growing fleet of modern Boeing 737 MAX aircraft.

The transaction represents an important step in the long-term fleet strategy of Norwegian, helping to secure the operational resilience of the airline in a cost-efficient manner. Deliveries are scheduled in 2027 and 2028 and are tailored to Norwegian’s expected operational requirements. This adds to the two LEAP-1B spare engines that Norwegian currently owns.

The investment is in line with Norwegian’s sustainability strategy, which aims to reduce emissions and improve operational efficiency through the use of modern technology. Norwegian remains committed to prudent management of its balance sheet and is in the process of securing long-term financing for this transaction.

“We are pleased to continue our long-standing partnership with CFM. This transaction secures the operational resilience of Norwegian and will maximise our aircraft availability and utilisation,” said Geir Karlsen, CEO of Norwegian.
