CFM Engines To Power New easyJet Planes
It was in December last year when British low-cost airline easyJet announced a firm order for 157 Airbus jets. However, there was no word on who would supply the engines for the aircraft, which would be delivered between FY2029 and FY2034.
We now have an answer. easyJet confirms that it has chosen CFM as the engine supplier. The Cincinnati-headquartered company will provide 314 LEAP-1A engines to power the 56 A320neo and 101 A321neo jets. The agreement also includes spare engines and secured pricing for 200 engines for the 100 purchase rights.
easyJet and CFM have done business with each other since 1995. In fact, the airline’s entire fleet is powered by CFM engines. Per their maker, the new-generation LEAP family powerplants provide a 15-20 per cent reduction in fuel consumption while emitting less CO2 and noise.

Check Out The 2024 Oakley Lunar New Year Collection
Inspired by the Wood Dragon, the Chinese Zodiac of 2024, Oakley has devised the 2024 Lunar New Year Collection. The eyewear maker says the dragon, the only mythical entity in the Chinese Zodiac, exudes certain qualities, such as enthusiasm, confidence and authority. And the four-piece collection it has launched tries to capture those traits.
The 2024 Oakley Lunar New Year Collection comprises two eyewear styles – Holbrook and Sutro. Both have Prizm 24K lenses and a custom micro bag donning a hand-drawn dragon logo. The logo is also found on the lenses. Rounding off the collection are the Line Miner Goggles with Prizm Snow Torch, a geometrical pattern on the strap, and the MOD1 helmet, featuring hand-drawn dragon logos on the temples.
The collection is available at select Oakley stores and on the brand’s official website.

It was in February last year when Air India and Airbus confirmed a deal for 250 aircraft. While the majority of the order comprised single-aisle jets from the A320 family, the agreement covered 40 A350 widebody jets. Of them, the first Airbus A350-900, in Air India’s new livery, was delivered in December 2023. Although intended for long-haul routes, that aircraft has entered commercial service in India.

Barring Tuesdays, on which it will fly between Bengaluru and Delhi only, the A350-900 will serve passengers from Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad. The aircraft, powered by two Rolls-Royce Trent XWB engines, has 316 seats: 28 private Business suites with full-flat beds, 24 Premium Economy seats and 264 Economy seats.
