Emirates, the Dubai government-owned airline, is seeking to borrow $1bn through a revolving-credit facility, according to three bankers who received requests from the carrier.
Emirates asked banks to propose conditions for the borrowing including the lifetime, said two of the bankers, who declined to be identified because the talks are private. The money would be used to fund aircraft purchases, said two of the bankers.
Emirates, the world’s biggest carrier by international traffic, has ordered 203 planes and will take delivery of two aircraft a month on average for the next six years. The airline needs more than $28bn through 2017 for the expansion of its fleet, double the amount it has raised since 1996, Gary Chapman, head of finance and services, said September 1.
