Airbus and Japan Airlines sign first ever order

摘要

Japan Airlines (JAL) signed a purchase agreement for 31 A350 XWBs (18 A350-900S and 13 A350-1000s), plus options for a further 25 aircraft. This is JAL's first ever order for Airbus aircraft. It is also the first order Airbus has received from Japan for the A350 XWB, confirming its continuing success with world leading airlines across the globe. JAL and Airbus aim for entry into service from 2019, with the airline's A350 XWBs gradually replacing its ageing fleet approximately over a six year period.
