What is hybrid lease or CMI?
Hybrid lease or CMI (Crew, Maintenance and Insurance) is a combination of both a dry and wet lease and a solution for airlines with aircraft capacity, but the need to outsource the operating segment of operation be it due to: lack of flight crew, lower cost of personnel, strike action etc. In the CMI model, the client’s aircraft is dry leased to an operator which wet leases it back to the client with crew, maintenance and insurance, while the aircraft is operated under the lessee’s (client’s) call sign.
Chapman Freeborn’s forward-thinking approach can help operators identify the possibility to utilize their aircraft and surplus crews with this unique type of lease.
