Thai AirAsia staff celebrate the inauguration of the budget airline's first A320neo at Don Mueang airport on Saturday. Thai AirAsia (TAA) heralds a new era of fleet modernisation with its first Airbus 320neo coming into service. Executive vice-president Preechaya Rasametanin told the Bangkok Post TAA's future aircraft over the next several years will be brand-new A320neos. Malaysia AirAsia (MAA) became the first A320neo operator in September this year when it commenced operating its first version of this aircraft. With some 4,800 orders received from 87 customers since its launch in 2010, the A320neo family has captured a 60% share of the market, according to Airbus.
