This makes tremendous sense from a risk management standpoint. Boeing don't deserve all of JAL's business after this incredible 787 DEBACLE. I hope JAL will get good compensation as well from Boeing for these continuing delays.

Japan Airlines may buy about 20 A350 jets from Airbus for around 400 billion yen ($4.23 billion), the Nikkei daily reported on Sunday, a move that would reduce its reliance on Boeing.

The Japanese carrier is considering using A350-1000 jets on flights to Europe and the United States to replace its Boeing 777 jets, and is set to make a final decision on the purchase by around June, the newspaper said, without citing sources.
