​Cyprus Airways to introduce A320neos to its fleet
August 26, 2026
Cyprus Airways plans to add two A320neos and launch four new Larnaca routes within six months, including Munich and Rome from December 2026. The expansion will be supported by an enhanced premium product and new loyalty programme, although the airline continues to face air-traffic delays, aircraft delivery constraints and rising engineering costs.


Alliance to Raise A$40 Million in New Equity
August 26, 2026
Alliance Aviation Services will raise A$40 million in equity to reduce debt and support working capital after FY2026 underlying pre-tax profit fell 54% to A$38.2 million and it recorded a statutory after-tax loss of A$90.9 million. The group is renegotiating its Qantas wet-lease arrangement, progressively retiring Fokker 100s and targeting FY2027 underlying pre-tax profit of A$55–60 million.


Alliance Aviation considers capital raising
August 25, 2026
Alliance Aviation Services suspended trading in its shares until 26 August 2026 while considering a possible debt or equity raising. The move follows financial pressure from a previously loss-making Qantas wet-lease contract and rising E190 maintenance and depreciation costs, alongside an upcoming CEO transition from Stewart Tully to former Flyadeal chief Steven Greenway.
