Centrum Air has received a brand-new Airbus A321neo, marking the 11th aircraft in its fleet and the fifth from the NEO family. Registered as UK32132, the aircraft was assembled at Airbus’s Hamburg facility and completed factory testing, including a 2 hour and 25-minute flight to assess system performance across various flight modes.
Equipped with modern CFMI LEAP-1A33 engines, the new jet is quieter and more fuel-efficient, aligning with modern environmental and efficiency standards. Painted in Centrum Air’s signature livery, the A321neo will soon operate on both regional and international routes.
In just 2.5 years, Centrum Air has deployed 11 aircraft and launched over 35 destinations. The company plans to expand its fleet to 14 aircraft by the end of 2025 and 21 by the end of 2026.
“Each new aircraft is a step toward making air travel more accessible. We’re not just expanding—we’re building modern, reliable, and passenger-focused aviation,” said Centrum Air CEO Abdulaziz Abdurahmanov.
