Thus, to manage the increasing cargo transport via air, airlines such as Emirates, Qatar Airways, Royal Jordanian, Etihad Airways, and Gulf Air rely on aircraft leasing for fleet management. For instance, in May 2023, Emirates SkyCargo wet-leased two 747-400Fs to add capacity to manage the fleets and increase cargo activities.

In addition, the procurement cost of new aircraft is very high; hence, airlines lend aircraft from the aircraft leasing companies to trim the operating cost. For instance, in May 2023, LIFT, a South African airline, signed a lease agreement with AerCap to procure an Airbus A320-200 for its fleet and route expansion plans.
