Kuwait's Jazeera to decide between Airbus, Boeing order next year | ZAWYA MENA Edition:

Kuwait's Jazeera Airways will by the end of February ask Airbus AIR.PA and Boeing to pitch to supply up to 25 narrow-body jets, its chief executive told Reuters on Wednesday.

The discount airline previously said it was likely to place an order by the end of 2018 but had not said how many aircraft it would take.

Jazeera is likely to decide on the order "very quickly" after it issues a request for proposal (RFP) for between 20 and 25 aircraft, CEO Rohit Ramachandran said in a phone interview.
