The aircraft, which is powered by Rolls-Royce XWB engines, is due for entry into service in 2014.
ALC also firmed up options for 14 A321neos following a June 2012 agreement for 36 A320neo family aircraft. Engine selections will be announced later. The A320neo will enter service in late 2015, followed by the larger A321neo in 2016.
With this latest confirmation from ALC, the lessor’s cumulative orders for the A320neo family have reached 50, of which up to 34 will be A321neos.
