About AerCap
AerCap buys, leases, sells and manages commercial aircraft and engines for customers across the aviation world, with activity concentrated in markets such as China, Hong Kong, Macau, the United States and Ireland. It is recognized for the scale of its aircraft and engine fleet, which by the end of 2021 stood at 2,369 units either owned outright, managed on behalf of others, or on order.
The company's work goes beyond simply owning aircraft. It remarkets planes and engines to new operators, collects rent and maintenance payments, inspects and maintains equipment, arranges deliveries and redelivery, and checks on the financial health of the airlines it leases to. When leases run into trouble, it can renegotiate terms or repossess aircraft, and it also arranges insurance, registration and valuations, alongside treasury and administrative functions like budgeting and financial reporting. It further supplies airframe and engine parts through supply chain arrangements serving airlines, maintenance and repair organizations, and parts distributors.
AerCap was founded in 1995 and is headquartered in Dublin, Ireland. Its shares are listed on the NYSE under the ticker AER.
