Other Events
AerCap awarded insurance payment by English Commercial Court for aircraft and engines lost in Russia
In a judgment handed down today, the Commercial Court in London found that AerCap is entitled to recover its claim for an indemnity of approximately $1 billion from the insurers under the “War
and Allied Perils” Coverage section of its contingent and possessed insurance policy. This award is in respect of the aircraft and engines which AerCap and its affiliates formerly leased to Russian airlines and were not recovered from Russia
following its invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. The indemnity amount is due to be paid by July 2, 2025. All questions of interest and costs are adjourned to a further hearing to be fixed in September 2025.
In 2022, we recognized a pre-tax net charge of $2.7 billion to our earnings, which included a total loss write-off with respect to the assets which remained in Russia and Ukraine and impairment
losses with respect to the assets which we had recovered from Russia and Ukraine at that time. Following recoveries of $1.3 billion in 2023 and $195 million in 2024, this indemnity award will bring AerCap’s total pre-tax recoveries relating to the
Ukraine conflict to approximately $2.5 billion.
The claims against insurers and reinsurers of the Russian airlines’ insurance policies in respect of a number of these assets remain ongoing in the Commercial Court in London and we intend to
continue to vigorously pursue those claims. However, the collection, timing and amount of any potential further recoveries in respect of those claims are uncertain.
The information contained in this Form 6-K is incorporated by reference into the Company’s Form F-3 Registration Statement, File No. 333-282733, and Form S-8 Registration Statements, File Nos.
