Alafco, whose shareholders include the Kuwaiti government, has a fleet of 77 wide- and narrow-body Airbus AIR.PA and Boeing BA.N aircraft operated by airlines and another 68 on order. The potential sale comes as aircraft lessors around the world are confronted with inflation, higher borrowing costs and the impact of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Alafco's customers include Air India, Indonesia's Garuda, Malaysia Airlines, Kuwait Airways and Italy's new carrier ITA.
