Orders on Airbus are dominated by Paris Air Force, as Boeing takes back seat – again

Airbus Orders and new models have passed the central stage at this year’s Paris Aviation as its rival in the US Boiling Conducts another major industry event, keeping a low profile from the uprising in the business.

Airlines and manufacturers use air shows as an opportunity to make questionnaires on the purchase of planes after months of negotiations, some of which will be completed at the event. Airbus raised nearly $ 21 billion as of Calculation Reuters.

These included 132 branded orders on Monday, including customers Saudi leasing firm AvileaseJapan Ana and Poland, against 41 for Boeing and 15 for Brazilian Embraer, according to Aviation Advisory IBA.

In the next two days Boeing is holding back from ads completely, while Airbus splashed a 150-defense memorandum of understanding with Vietjet Air, focused on its one pass 100 A321neos, as well as orders with Egyptair and Starlux for a wide A350s.

Chief of Air Asia Tony Fernandez said CNBC On Thursday he conducted a discussion in Paris on the firm’s extension Existing order For Airbus XLR-Flagman based on Toulouse, based in Toulouse, a new distant, narrow aircraft, and waited for the message over the next month. The model that entered the service last year.

Embraer also provided a key victory on Wednesday with 60 firms for E175 as well as additional options.

The relatively quiet presence of Boeing in Paris does not indicate a wider demand crisis in the sector. The manufacturer sealed a lot of orders during US President Donald Trump’s trip to the Middle East, including A 210-JET transaction with Qatar Airways.

Both Boeing, and Airbus Meanwhile have a plane lag than 5000 and 8000 Aircraft, accordingly, figures that have not been approached for almost ten years – will deteriorate as a result of the pandemic – leave airlines that seek to restore their aging fleets.

John Ploger, Chief Executive Director Air Lreat Corp, said CNBC Earlier this week, when the gap meant that in Paris it is always expected that the show would be muted in Paris compared to those past, including after the 2023 pandemic boom. “Both Airbus and Boeing are all in 2031 and 32. In any case, how many subsequent orders in” 33, ’34, ”, personnel terms?

However, this notes another year when Boeing abstained from aviation frippos or major promotional activities. Since 2019 The emergency exit on the door explosion. charges of extensive quality control issuesand Increasingly overcoming customers because of delayed delivery – Boeing had many reasons to avoid the spotlight.

Just as in 2025 appeared so The first in the story of the Boeing Dreamliner disaster Last week, Air India dropped it into the disorder. Ortberg left the event, and the firm made several press messages as long as they say investigation for the cause of the accident.

“Demand for new planes remains unprecedented, which is only in demand for passenger travel,” said Tony Payne, a partner of the law firm Dla Piper.

He added that the orders remain strong, despite the “gloomy and reflection” after the Air India accident, as the stakeholders “know the impact” of any rest of the standards.

“Orders to new planes and engines remain strong, but next to the gloomy and reflexive environment, where the stakeholders know well that the impact of any weakening can have.”

Therefore, the “muted” became the word of the week from the point of view of commercial aviation, while the defense is drawing up Almost half of the show’s content This year-takes a big role against the background SinceRussia-Ukraine war and the upcoming NATO summit, which will higher national security costs will be high on the agenda. Deals in this space included ChunkSince contract Build 48 of your new remote artillery systems for the French government.

“The consequences, influence of the Air India crash” hanging over Paris, Airbus Guillaume Faury said on Monday. “However, the impetus in this area is very strong,” he continued, noting the special demand for a wide -body aircraft, which was more catching up to do after a pandemic than in a narrow market.

Dan Taylor, head of consulting at IB, said CNBC that the split between Boeing and Airbus this year was “more about context than competition.”

“The latest Boeing orders in the Middle East helped diplomatic participation in the US and its quiet position after India’s air, probably affected its smaller visibility at the Paris airline. This is not a sign of weakening demand, but rather a deliberate pause against the background of the flying geopolitical background and possible uncertainty.”

“Airlines are probably engaged in the strategies of reassessment of the fleet, given the last crisis, but a great profitability, aging of the fleet, mitigation of debt, and long -term GDP and travel in many regions, all indicate a sustainable long -term appetite for new aircraft.”
