Bangkok Airways to purchase A350s
Airbus has won an order from Bangkok Airways for six A350 airliners, valued at about $1 billion at list prices, as the Thai carrier adds routes to Europe, the company announced Friday.
The contract brings Airbus' total orders and commitments for the planned 257- to 297-seat airliner to 170 planes for 13 customers, the France-based planemaker said. Bangkok Airways, which operates Thailand's second- biggest fleet of airliners, will choose a 258-seat configuration and take delivery of the planes starting in 2012, Airbus said.
Bangkok Airways said in November that it was choosing between the A350 and Boeing's 787 for a $582 million order for six fuel-efficient long-range planes.
