An important means of both financing and managing aircraft for airlines is the Sale and Leaseback option. Under such arrangements an airline sells an aircraft to the lessor who then leases it back to the carrier on a long-term basis.

AviaCapital offers airlines Sale and Leaseback arrangements on both new aircraft and aircraft less than 10 years old, primarily from the Airbus, Boeing, Embraer and Bombardier families.

AviaCapital arranges and acquires ownership of the asset from the airline, or from the manufacturer in the case of new aircraft, thereby enabling the airline to preserve its capital resources.

Typical lease terms on sale and leaseback agreements extend from 3 years
for single aisle aircraft and from 5 years for widebody types.
