Air Europa is attracting interest from up to five other airlines looking to become shareholders, as confirmed by the company's CEO, Jesús Nuño de la Rosa. He emphasized that the company's positive performance and ability to meet commitments have naturally drawn this attention.

Before the summer, a capital increase is expected to issue up to 20% in new shares, providing an opportunity for new investors. De la Rosa highlighted, “We are meeting our strategic plan. Air Europa is doing well.”

To lead the search for new partners, Javier Hidalgo has been tasked with identifying potential investors before February, according to Aeroin, an associated media outlet. Among those showing interest are industry leaders such as Air France-KLM, Lufthansa, Etihad, and Delta Airlines, alongside potential deals with investment funds.

Last December, International Airlines Group (IAG) confirmed its intent to participate in the capital increase, reaffirming its 20% stake in the airline. This decision came despite the European Commission rejecting the planned merger between Iberia and Air Europa. IAG's commitment demonstrates its continued confidence in the airline’s long-term potential.
