Airbus received 58 orders for jets in March

April 4, 2019 by Forimmediaterelease

Airbus received orders for 58 jetliners in March – led by the A350 XWB widebody family in transactions that included a new customer; while delivering 74 aircraft to 40 customers from across its A220, A320, A330, A350 XWB and A380 product lines.

Pacing the month’s new business was Lufthansa Group’s order for 20 additional A350-900s, bringing its total A350 XWB orders to 45. Lufthansa Group is the biggest operator of Airbus aircraft.

Also in March, STARLUX Airlines of Taiwan signed a firm order for 17 A350 XWBs, comprising 12 A350-1000s and five shorter-fuselage A350-900 versions – becoming a new Airbus customer. The airline plans to deploy the aircraft on its premier long-haul services from Taipei to Europe and North America, as well as to selected destinations within the Asia-Pacific region.

Completing the month’s widebody new business was an order for one A350-900 from a private customer.

The single-aisle transaction in March involved 20 A320neo jetliners for an undisclosed customer.

Deliveries in March were composed of 57 A320 Family aircraft (13 in the CEO configuration and 44 NEO versions), eight A350-900s/A350-1000s, five A220s, three A330s (all in the NEO version) and one A380.

Among the month’s notable deliveries was the first A350-900 delivered to Evelop Airlines. With this aircraft – leased from Air Lease Corporation – the Spanish carrier of Barceló Group’s Ávoris travel division becomes the initial holiday/leisure carrier to operate an A350 XWB.

Other milestones in March included the first A380 delivery to Japan’s All Nippon Airways (ANA), which is the 15th operator of the world’s largest passenger aircraft. Additionally, Airbus delivered the no. 1 A330neo for an African airline, with Air Senegal receiving its first A330-900.

In the VIP sector, Airbus provided the first of three ACJ320neo aircraft for Comlux, which will now begin its cabin outfitting by the Comlux Completion centre in the United States. Comlux is the largest customer for Airbus Corporate Jets’ ACJ320neo Family.

Taking the latest orders and cancellations into account, Airbus’ backlog of jetliners remaining to be delivered as of 31 March stood at 7,357 aircraft.

Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort recycles over 4k plastic bottles a day

December 14, 2018 by PressEditor

Green Globe recently recertified the Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort in the Dominican Republic awarding the property an outstanding compliance score of 91%. 

Green Globe is the original certification program developed over 25 years ago to guide tourism enterprises along the path to sustainable operations and management.  The Green Globe Standard includes 44 mandatory core criteria supported by over 380 compliance indicators. The certification rates the multi-hotel complex, comprised of both the Barceló Bávaro Palace and the Barceló Bávaro Beach Adults Only Resort, as one of the most sustainable properties in the world,

Pedro Parets, General Manager at the Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort said, “Green Globe is the most important sustainability certification system within the tourism sector and it is an honor for Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort to receive this recognition which rewards our constant commitment to provide the best service for our guests whilst continuing to respect the characteristic Caribbean environment surrounding the Complex.”

The recycling of 4.000 plastic bottles daily from its restaurants and buffets is one example of the environmental programs at the property that support sustainable practices. Furthermore, a state-of- the-art waste treatment facility is regulated, monitored and maintained by a professional outside contractor that significantly assists with minimising environmental impacts.

Energy and water saving initiatives are also in place. Biomass and solar power is incorporated into the energy supply and a system has been implemented that uses thermal heat generated from boilers to supply hot water to the laundry. Barceló Bávaro also has closed loop water management systems that utilize black and grey water to reduce overall usage and maximize efficiency.

About Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort

In 1985, the Barceló Group discovered a new destination: Bávaro Beach, a piece of paradise in the Dominican Republic. The Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort became the first hotel to open that was owned by a Spanish chain in Punta Cana.

Today, 33 years later, the hotel has completely reinvented itself to become a pioneering example in the Caribbean once more. Following a major refurbishment, we have two luxury establishments within the Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort complex: the first being the Barceló Bávaro Palace, providing a tailor-made paradise for families 24 hours a day; and on the other hand, the  Barceló Bávaro Beach Adults Only, with exclusive areas where guests can enjoy this wonderful place in a peaceful adults-only environment. 

A privileged location with the majority of rooms and services overlooking the sea makes this an unbeatable Beach Front All Inclusive Resort.
