Aircraft manufacturers Airbus and Boeing are preparing for the cancellation of major aircraft orders from Norwegian Air<\/strong> as part of restructuring procedures, according to industry sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Norwegian obtained bankruptcy protection last year in both Norway and Ireland, where most of its assets are registered, and intends to float with fewer aircraft and less debt, Reuters<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week, the Irish High Court is hearing arguments regarding the repudiation of some of Norwegian’s liabilities, including aircraft leases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“There is an ongoing hearing and we cannot comment until it is over,” a Norwegian spokesman said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Norwegian has 88 A320 family aircraft on order from Airbus, according to the manufacturer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The airline indicated last June that it had canceled orders for 97 Boeing aircraft and would claim compensation for the 737 MAX grounding and 787 Dreamliner engine problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, orders for 5 Dreamliners and 92 MAXs are still posted on Boeing’s website, indicating that the U.S. aircraft manufacturer has so far asserted its rights to the contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pressure on the aircraft order book is mounting as the pandemic drags on for a second year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Airbus is engaged in tough negotiations with another major low-cost carrier, Malaysia’s AirAsia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several sources said the discussions centered on whether AirAsia, one of Airbus’ biggest customers with some 400 aircraft ordered across the group, could not only delay deliveries but also get a partial refund of deposits, which is considered an unusual move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
