Airbus said that Delta needs the aircraft to renew its fleet of airliners
Paris: US carrier Delta Air Lines has ordered 15 Airbus medium-haul A321 aircraft with a total list price of $1.65 billion, the European plane maker said on Monday. The order by Delta is for the current engine option of the aircraft, which Airbus also offers with new, more fuel-efficient engines.
Delta needs the aircraft to renew its fleet of airliners, Airbus said in a statement. The catalogue value of the contract is worth the equivalent of 1.2 billion euros, but airlines usually negotiate substantial reductions from list prices.
