STLC Europe Eight is suing EasyJet for at least $72 million, alleging that after terminating the lease agreements in 2022 the airline improperly parked and failed to maintain six Airbus aircraft, causing parking fees. EasyJet had ended the contracts citing alleged EU sanctions that would have prevented maintenance; STLC disputes this, pointing to locations outside Russia and Irish operational control. Three jets in Cyprus were later seized and sold, realizing at least $32.5 million less due to their condition; three other aircraft in Madrid have not yet been sold. » Mais em de.investing.com
