Qantas to secure new planes from Airbus, Boeing

The multi-billion dollar order is split between 12 Airbus A350s and 12 Boeing 787s, which will arrive from fiscal 2027 and into the next decade, Qantas said. Qantas said the deal was aimed at providing a replacement for its current Airbus A330 and Airbus A380 aircraft. This has the potential to meet up to 90% of the group’s interim SAF target for 2030, Qantas said. "SAF reduces lifecycle carbon emissions by up to 80 per cent and is a key part of Qantas’ emissions reduction plan," it said. Reuters earlier in the week had reported, citing industry sources, that Boeing was nearing a deal for its 787 Dreamliner aircraft with Qantas.

REUTERS/Loren Elliott/file photo Acquire Licensing RightsAug 21 (Reuters) - Boeing (BA.N) is close to securing an order for more of its 787 Dreamliner aircraft from Australia’s Qantas Airways (QAN.AX), industry sources said. Qantas, Boeing and Airbus declined to comment. Qantas, whose original decision to opt for a smaller type of Boeing 787 in 2005 led to a review of Airbus's wide-body strategy, is considered to be among the most influential aircraft buyers. Sources said the upcoming Dreamliner deal swings orders back in Boeing’s favor with the largest variant of 787. Qantas last placed a Dreamliner order in 2018, when it signed a deal for six jetliners meant to replace its remaining Boeing 747s.
