Airbus said it received an order from Taiwan's airline EVA Air
for the purchase of 18 long-range A350-1000s and 15 single-aisle
A321neo aircraft.
The firm order, for an undisclosed sum, makes the airline the
latest global carrier to select the A350-1000 for its future
long-haul requirements, the French plane manufacturer said
Tuesday.
This is EVA Air's first direct purchase of the A321neo, Airbus
said. "We look forward to working closely with the airline as it
prepares for its new Airbus fleet," it said.
"The aircraft also bring significant reductions in carbon
emissions, which is in line with our company's sustainability
goals," president of EVA Air, Clay Sun, said.
The A350-1000 has capacity for 410 passengers, while the A321neo
is part of the A320neo Family, and incorporates technology such as
new-generation engines and Sharklet wing-tip extensions and
cabin-efficiency features which together can deliver 20% fuel
savings, according to Airbus.
