OrionFLY sells four Piaggio Avanti IIs to OYONNAIR
Oyonnair and OrionFLY announced today the arrival of four additional pre-owned Piaggio Avanti IIs, the oustanding Italian turboprop, to further boost the Oyonnair's fleet which will now feature a total of nine Avantis. All aircraft were formerly operated by K-AIR.
Oyonnair is a European pioneer in using turboprop aircraft for medical and organs transportation, representing 60% of the French market for turboprop medical flights. Since 2015, Oyonnair has based its business model on the Piaggio Aerospace’s flagship Avanti, an aircraft renowned for its superior performance, class-leading fuel economy and outstanding cabin comfort. Its ruggedness and ability to take off and land on short runways are additional features extremely useful for the Oyonnair’s specific types of operations, governed by very strict protocols.
In the last year alone, Oyonnair has registered more than 3,000 hours and 500 MEDEVAC missions with a 98% availability rate, the indicator of the highest standards of the Avanti’s reliability and aftermarket support performance.
“The decision to further expand our fleet of Piaggio Avantis is the confirmation of our great confidence in the performance, economics and reliability of this wonderful Italian masterpiece”, Daniel Vovk, President and CEO at Oyonnair, said. “We are very happy to continue our collaboration with OrionFLY that has proved to be a reliable and knowledgeable business partner in this very specific and selective market segment.”
Massimo Isidori, General Manager of OrionFLY, added: “In some five years of intense and constructive collaboration between OrionFLY and Oyonnair, we are now at a total of eight Avantis delivered to our best customer by our company. It’s not by chance that Oyonnair is presently the largest Avanti operator in the world and OrionFLY is delighted having been greatly involved in this outstanding achievement. Oyonnair represents one of the European excellences in medical and organ transportation. We are extremely proud to support them in this vital and socially valuable work.”
