Air France-KLM<\/strong> announced Monday that it will order 50 Airbus A350<\/strong> jets, along with an option to purchase an additional 40 aircraft.<\/p>\n

The tentative agreement includes A350-900 and A350-1000 models, and the aircraft will be delivered between 2026 and 2030, the airline group said in a statement.<\/p>\n

“This new order will be an important step in the renewal of the Group’s fleet. The Airbus A350 is a state-of-the-art aircraft with an excellent track record at Air France, where it has quickly become a passenger and crew favorite since its entry into service in 2019,” said Air France-KLM Chief Executive Officer Benjamin Smith.<\/p>\n

The deal, valued at billions of dollars, follows a months-long competition between Airbus and Boeing to replace Airbus A330s and the oldest part of its Boeing 777 fleet.<\/p>\n

The planned order, which is not yet on Airbus’ books pending a final contract, is in addition to an existing order for 41 Airbus A350-900s for Air France, 22 of which have already been delivered.<\/p>\n

The group has eight A350 freighters on order.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Air France-KLM announced Monday that it will order 50 Airbus A350 jets, along with an option to purchase…\n","protected":false},"author":4316,"featured_media":144086,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[415,217,222,230,197,416],"class_list":{"0":"post-144085","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-airlines","8":"tag-air-france-2","9":"tag-airbus-2","10":"tag-aircraft","11":"tag-airline","12":"tag-airlines","13":"tag-klm-2"},"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350.jpg",800,400,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350-300x150.jpg",300,150,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350-768x384.jpg",768,384,true],"large":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350.jpg",800,400,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350.jpg",800,400,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350.jpg",800,400,false],"pk-small":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350-80x80.jpg",80,80,true],"pk-thumbnail":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350-300x225.jpg",300,225,true],"csco-small":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350-80x80.jpg",80,80,true],"csco-intermediate":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350-200x140.jpg",200,140,true],"csco-thumbnail":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350-380x220.jpg",380,220,true],"csco-thumbnail-alternative":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350-300x180.jpg",300,180,true],"csco-thumbnail-uncropped":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350-380x190.jpg",380,190,true],"csco-medium":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350.jpg",800,400,false],"csco-medium-alternative":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350-560x336.jpg",560,336,true],"csco-medium-uncropped":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350.jpg",800,400,false],"csco-large":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350.jpg",800,400,false],"csco-large-uncropped":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350.jpg",800,400,false],"csco-extra-large":["https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Air-France-a350.jpg",800,400,false]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Redacci\u00f3n - Aviaci\u00f3n al D\u00eda","author_link":"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/author\/aad"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"Air France-KLM announced Monday that it will order 50 Airbus A350 jets, along with an option to purchase…","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/144085","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4316"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=144085"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/144085\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":144088,"href":"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/144085\/revisions\/144088"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/144086"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=144085"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=144085"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=144085"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
