Airline Fleets Quick Reference 2026
Compiled by Terry Smith and Lyn Buttifant with the Airline Fleets and Air-Britain News Teams
AFQR, the market-leading airline fleet book, as always lists the fleets of airlines operating
anywhere Worldwide. This year we cover 178 countries and 1,355 airlines, providing details
of some 38,000 aircraft ranging in size from the Jetstream up to the Airbus A380. The data
includes registration, type, c/n (plus line number where appropriate), status and where
appropriate fleet number. A separate appendix lists Corporate and VIP airliners in both civil
and military use.
To facilitate use of the book throughout the year details of known forthcoming deliveries,
due in the next 12 months, are included. Aircraft that were in storage at the time of going to
press are indicated by a hash (#). A diamond is used to indicate aircraft that have undergone
some kind of ‘change’ in our lists (for example, it is a new entry, it has been transferred from
one airline to another or has undertaken some other movement such as retrieval from
storage or returned to the fleet following conversion work). We have left space for potential
2026 deliveries.
