IAG Firms Up Order for 4 Airbus A330s and 15 A320neos

Airbus released a statement about how IAG is planning to convert two of its A330-200s, two of its A330-300s, and fifteen of its A320neo aircraft into solid orders. If this order was combined with the total amount of Airbus aircraft that IAG operates, this would bring the total to almost near 470.

Iberia will be in charge of the two A330-200 aircraft while Aer Lingus will be in charge of the two A330-300 aircraft. As for the other fifteen aircraft, they will be spread among the two groups.

John Leahy, the Chief Operating Officer of Airbus, commented:

“Between them, the airlines in IAG operate or have on order our full range of Airbus aircraft. IAG is one of our most prestigious customers and these new repeat orders for A330s and A320neos confirm again the high added value and superior productivity of our widebody and single aisle aircraft.”

The A330 is one of Airbus’ most popular aircraft. The A330 is used by over 100 operators. This aircraft has one over 1,500 orders alone. To boost its popularity even more, Airbus is planning to invest many hundreds of millions of Euros per year to enhance everything about the A330 to ensure that is will have the latest and greatest in terms of innovative systems.

Not only is the A330 getting upgraded, the A320neo is as well. Airbus is planning to reduce the amount of fuel consumption by over 15 percent. This will allow for longer range capability.
