Airlines group IAG <\/strong>is in advanced talks with planemakers on a medium-haul fleet shake-up that may see the British Airways parent opt for Boeing and Airbus jets to update a European fleet of Airbus narrowbodies, industry sources said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IAG stunned the industry nearly three years ago when it unveiled a tentative order worth $24 billion at list prices for 200 Boeing 737 MAX at the Paris Airshow in 2019, at a time when the jet was grounded worldwide in the wake of two fatal crashes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The global outbreak of COVID-19 early the following year caused that deal to lapse, and the airline group later started a formal contest between Boeing and Airbus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sources said Boeing looked likely to keep a slimmed-down version of the order, potentially involving closer to 50 jets than the original blockbuster quantity of 200, Reuters<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Airline group also owns narrowbody operators Aer Lingus of Ireland and Spain’s Iberia and Vueling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a deal is confirmed in ongoing negotiations, Boeing’s MAX is seen most likely to be deployed at Vueling and future low-cost operations at London Gatwick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But firming up new Airbus orders has hit a hurdle as the European planemaker struggles to find available production slots after taking a lead over Boeing in the market for single-aisle jets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further Airbus orders may also depend on progress in negotiations over undelivered A350 aircraft, the sources said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IAG Chief Financial Officer Steve Gunning told analysts in November that the airline group would need some additional short-haul aircraft towards 2024 or 2025 and hinted that any order would include the 737 MAX.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
