Briefing

What Hype is tracking

  • The £3.5 billion package makes aircraft financing—not high-yield bonds—the planned funding route for Apollo’s easyJet acquisition, highlighting the role of asset-backed debt in a major airline transaction.
  • The financing choice is relevant to aircraft investors and lessors because it links aircraft funding directly to the capital structure supporting an airline acquisition.
