Air France takes delivery of 69th A320


Air France took delivery of it's 69th Airbus A320 (MSN 7713 F-HEPI), it's first new A320 delivery since 2013. Air France operates all versions of the A320 family, having now received 18 x A318, 39 x A319, 69 x A320 and 25 x A321 for a total of 151 A320 family aircraft delivered new. The airline also absorbed the A320 family fleet of Air Inter when the domestic airline was absorbed in September 1997. Only one ex-Air Inter A320 continues to be operated today (msn 237 F-GHQM).

Many early build A320-100s and -200s have now been retired from Air France, and their current A320 family fleet numbers:

A318: 18
A319: 38
A320: 43
A321: 20
Total: 119

Few airlines have operated all four members of the A320 family. These include Air France, British Airways, LAN Airlines and Frontier Airlines.
