Airbus Reports Around 72 Aircraft Deliveries in September, Nearing Last Year’s Total
Airbus delivered approximately 72 aircraft in September, nearly matching last year's 73, exceeding analyst estimates in the mid to high 60s. This delivery pace comes despite industrial challenges, including parts shortages and glitches affecting models like the A321neo. Commercial CEO Lars Wagner expressed confidence in achieving the full-year delivery target of around 870 jets, defined informally as between 850 and 890. Airbus has yet to confirm the provisional September delivery figures ahead of its October 8 industrial bulletin.
