Lion Air has announced that it will retire its Boeing 747-400 aircraft and replace them with the Airbus 330-900NEO.
The airlines have only operated Boeing’s double-deck airplane since April 23, 2009. The airplane has 12 business class and 492 economy class seats.
Lion Air spokesman Danang Mandala Prihantoro said the airplane had performed well, as it could cover long routes nonstop and at high speed and transport a large number of passengers or large amounts of cargo.
