The group CEO said due to criticism regarding Wednesday scandal, the profit of Skylines Leasing is at a dangerously low profit as a result it was put up for sale and Aer Cap the largest in Ireland has bought the lesser for €1.5 billion. Aer Cap CEO said for operators who has aircraft leased from Skylines Leasing will remain until 1 April 2024 which is when the merger will be complete and will be transferred into Aer Cap.

The money that Skylines received would be spilt up 50 percent of the money will be funded to Forum a new company which details are not yet known. 25 percent would be funded to Skylines Security and the remaining 25 percent would be leftover as profit.
