Aviation Capital Group Signs Definitive Agreements to Acquire a 24 Aircraft Portfolio from Avolon

Newport Beach, California (February 19, 2026) – Aviation Capital Group LLC (ACG), a premier global full-service aircraft asset manager, is pleased to announce that it has signed definitive agreements with Avolon Aerospace Leasing Limited (Avolon) to acquire a portfolio of 24 aircraft.

This portfolio includes 18 narrowbody aircraft (12 of which are new technology) and 6 widebody aircraft (all of which are new technology). As of February 1, 2026, the average age of the portfolio is approximately 4.5 years, and the average remaining lease term is approximately 8.9 years. The aircraft are on lease to 17 airlines across 16 countries, including 4 airlines that are new customers for ACG.

“Proactive aircraft trading is an important pillar of our growth strategy, and the acquisition of these 24 sought-after aircraft strengthens our portfolio and supports our ambition to be a lessor of scale. It also enhances the sustainability of our fleet, already among the youngest in the industry,” said Thomas Baker, CEO and President of ACG. “We thank our trusted trading partner, Avolon, for their collaboration on this transaction.”

“Our latest portfolio transaction with ACG further extends our relationship and once again demonstrates their ability to execute aircraft trading at scale,” said Ross O’Connor, Chief Financial Officer at Avolon. “The transaction builds on our record trading performance in 2025, reflecting the continuing strong demand we are seeing for our assets.”

This new transaction follows a 2025 acquisition of a 19 aircraft portfolio from Avolon by ACG.
