K5 Aviation GmbH of Germany has firmed up a previously announced commitment for an Airbus ACJ319neo, adding to the growing number of orders for the world’s newest private jet family, which includes the ACJ320neo launched in 2015.

The ACJ319neo will be operated by K5 Aviation, which will be the first to fly the new type. K5 Aviation already manages three ACJ319s that are offered for VVIP charter exclusively through Vertis Aviation. 28 East, jointly owned by K5 and Vertis Aviation, managed the aircraft acquisition.

Delivery of the “green” aircraft is planned for the second quarter of 2019. Engines and cabin outfitter have yet to be selected.

“Today’s Airbus ACJ319 is popular with VVIP charters organised by Vertis Aviation and operated by K5 Aviation, and we look forward to even more success with the ACJ319neo,” says 28 East Partner Luca Madone.

“Comfort, space and freedom of movement are especially important to customers at the top-end of the market, which is what we deliver with the Airbus ACJ319, and the neo version will allow us to do this on even longer flights,” says K5 Aviation CEO Erik Scheidt.
