How much is an aircraft
How much is an aircraft in 2020 and 2021? How much would you pay to lease or buy an aircraft today? Let's have a look.
-----------------
In this video, I'm going to tell you how you can buy a commercial plane, how much it costs and why that may not be the best idea. There are some pretty crazy price differences and some planes are effectively worthless despite costing half a billion dollars - so buckle up and let us go shopping!
2020 is a great time for a fresh start, and if you were thinking of jumping into the airline game you can pick up some jets for a sweet deal. But how much do you need to put aside to buy an aircraft and which plane is the cheapest today?
Before you buy, it is worth pointing out how airlines themselves expand their fleets.
Here's the thing - most airlines don't actually own their aircraft. They do what is known as a lease buyback - buying the aircraft off airbus or Boeing and then selling it to a leasing firm. That way they can slowly pay off the plane and still have the capital for operations.
Leasing can be taken so much further. Airlines can also 'wet-lease' aircraft from a leasing firm, this means that they are hiring not only the plane, but the crew, fuel, and even airline certificate.
Technically at this level, there is nothing stopping you tomorrow launching an exciting route from Why, Arizona, USA to Whynot, North Carolina, USA
But what is the buying value of an aircraft? We see that airlines spend billions on airframes, but what is their order actually worth? Let us go from smallest to biggest with this year's figures. Again, this is not the list prices but what the aircraft is actually worth today.
The Airbus A220 series can be owned outright from - $29.7 - 35.3M, or leased for $205-270,000. The bigger A220-300 can be owned for $34.9 - 39.9M, and leased for $245-310,000 per month. Pretty good for a brand new 100 seater aircraft.
Next up, we have the short-haul Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 series. These aircraft are perfect for the domestic city to city trips like New York to Chicago or Melbourne to Sydney.
B737-700 - $7.3 - 37.5M, $85-280,000
B737-800 - $10.0 - 47.0M, $115-325,000
B737-900ER - $18.8 - 49.0M, $200-340,000
The 737-900 is worth almost double the 737-800 and a better investment in the long run.
You will notice that the Boeing 737 MAX is absent despite having a list price of around 100 million.
As for the airbus series:
A319 – $6.5 - 36.5M, $75-280,000
A320 – $2.0 - 43.8M, $60-320,000
A321 – $10.1 - 51.2M, $130-370,000
Then we have the latest version of the A320, the neo series which is worth
A320NEO - $40 - 49.5M, $295-350,000
A321XLR, which stands for ultra-long-range is can't be leased but only bought for US$142 million. This aircraft hasn't reached the market yet but is a game-changer as the longest range-single aisle narrowbody with 4,700 nautical miles of range.
That's it for short-haul aircraft, and now its time to look at the big boys. Widebody aircraft.
A330-200 – $14.0 - 80.0M, $140-610,000
A330-300 - $11.4 - 91.0M, $140-690,000
B767-300ER – $3.2 – 35.5M, $90-330,000
Now for Boeing's new widebody line, the Dreamliner.
B787-8 - $70.0 - 124.0M, $625-980,000
B787-9 - $99.0 - 146.0, $820-1,100,000
The Boeing 787-10 has a list price of $338 million. Again, new aircraft means that there is less of a secondary market for the type.
Boeing's 777 series is still popular,
B777-200ER – $12.0 – 44.0M, $200-350,000
B777-300ER – $50.0 – 156.0M, $500-1,330,000
And the new soon to be flying in our skies 777X can be yours for the low price of $442 million US. Again, its likely airlines are paying half of that list price.
.
A350-900 - $104.5 - 154.0M, $800-1,100,000
The A350-1000 has a list price of $366 million and there isn't a secondhand market for the type yet.
Jumbo Jet prices
Now, these aircraft are the biggest but may have the craziest prices.
B747-400 – $3.3 – 9.6M, $90-180,000
Boeing 747-8i - $US400 million new, but there isn't much of a second-hand market today.
The Airbus A380 was worth new $444 million, the most expensive on this list, yet today - only $66 million.
A380-800 - $66.0 - 220.0M, $520-1,80,000
Now, these numbers assume that there is a second-hand market, but in many cases like the A380, there simply are no buyers despite having a price of x for the market.
There are some aircraft missing from this list, but the market is so small for them that I've admitted them, like the A300 and the 757.
If you want to see how much a light aircraft under 100 seats and a freighter aircraft cost in 2020 today, then I've released a second video that you can see here - This market is a little different and I realized it would be a bit too much to fit into this video today. There is a complete list of the aircraft worth prices below.
