Surely it would make perfect sense to select Airbus products over Boeing at this stage of the Company's expansion, to ensure maximised commonality in all areas of operation and maintenance?

I would have to agree with MT Qatar on that one, however it is equally interesting to note the comments made regarding the level of discounts being offered by Airbus for the purchase.

LH announced on Friday that they had finalised the purchase of 10 Airbus A330's for delivery through 2003-2004. The final order value is rumoured to be 25-30% LOWER than the "list price". Just shows the strength of LH's purchasing power???

Who are the Uk based "advisors" to Qatar Airways?
