AerCap manages a fleet of 1,869 aircraft through special purpose vehicles (SPVs), which includes a significant number of A321neos. Among them are unassigned units awaiting operators.

Turkish Airlines continues to expand its fleet with orders from both Airbus and Boeing. By December 2023, they had ordered numerous Airbus models alongside recent orders for four Boeing freighters in July.
