Long haul aircraft order
According to Reuters, IAG the owner of British Airways are in negotiations with both Airbus and Boeing regarding a possible order for new long haul aircraft.
British Airways are looking to place an order for 20 or more long haul aircraft to replace their older Boeing 777s.
With the much delayed Boeing 777X that British Airways has on order from Boeing and the long delivery time for the Boeing 787 I have a feeling that this potential order will go in the favour of Airbus.
As part of the potential purchase, I wonder if IAG will order the Airbus A330-900 on behalf of British Airways as a possible replacement aircraft?
