In 2024, we completed a sale and leaseback of a Rolls-Royce Trent XWB-97 engine with French carrier Air Caraïbes, helping the airline strengthen liquidity within their financial year while mitigating long-term residual value risk on a critical fleet asset.
This milestone transaction reflects the depth of our relationship with Air Caraïbes – built through years of meaningful collaboration across all levels of the organisation. By demonstrating our investment in their long-term vision, we earned their trust as a strategic partner and played a key role in helping them diversify their lessor base.
Beyond the engine financing, we also provided a leased engine stand to support a separate engine removal, ensuring Air Caraïbes could meet a crucial shop visit slot without disruption. This operational support reinforced our broader value proposition of not only financing, but delivering practical, OEM-aligned solutions that keep aircraft flying.
Our partnership with Air Caraïbes reflects our belief in working closely with all of the world’s airlines and providing solutions that go beyond the transaction to deliver long-term value and keep fleets moving.
