Airbus frontrunner to win big Air Arabia order: sources - Reuters

Airbus frontrunner to win big Air Arabia order: sources - Reuters:

Airbus (AIR.PA) is likely to win an order for at least 100 jets from Air Arabia AIRA.DU with an announcement possibly coming as soon as the Dubai Airshow next week, two sources told Reuters.

The Emirati budget carrier has been considering the order for up to 120 jets, which would more than double its current fleet of 55 narrowbody aircraft, for more than a year.

Air Arabia, which has held talks with both Airbus and Boeing (BA.N) and said it would make a decision by January, was expected to select the European planemaker, the two sources said.

Airbus declined comment. Air Arabia did not immediately respond to an emailed request for comment.
