Lufthansa will reportedly use its mid-September board meeting to final-isea multi-billion dollarorder for 50 new widebody aircraft. The German national carrier has been assessing replacements for its ageing fleet of Boeing 747-400s and Airbus A340S and is believed to be considering the 787-10, 777X and A350-1000. It is not immediately clear whether Lufthansa will choose a single type, or will split the order between Airbus and Boeing, but deliveries of the 50 aircraft - valued at more than $10 billion based on list prices - are expected to start in 2018/2019.
