Hey Radialman,

Air India will be operating 6 CRJ700's on lease from August 2007. It would be great if they order the CRJ900, but I believe the only confirmation to date has been for the lease of the CRJ700's.

Hopefully this answers your question.

Quoting CRJ900X (Reply 1):
Air India will be operating 6 CRJ700's on lease from August 2007.

That's excellent news. Bombardier has done promotional tours in India recently with the CRJ900, so perhaps Air India wants to try out the aircraft type for a while before ordering, and existing CRJ700s are easier to obtain than CRJ900, which are becoming very popular this year.

Wonder which airlines are leasing out their CRJ700s... Shandong, perhaps?

Would be great to see the CRJ's in India and that too, in AIX colors...they can be very useful to operate into smaller airports where the 738's and 320's are too big to operate.... smile

Will these CRJs be new, leased or bought from another operator?
If they are new from Canada would they route via BHX like the AIX 738s have?

When AI/IC put out their tender for regional haul aircraft of 70 seater aircraft, only Bombardier responded with the CR7, there was no bid from EMB, hence the CR7 should be in AIX colours within a month or 2
