Airbus Says A330 to Survive a Decade on Long-Haul Discount Sales
Airbus SAS said it’s A330 twin-aisle jet could remain in production for another decade as low-cost airlines led by Ryanair Holdings Plc seek cut-price planes for the introduction of long-haul services.
Airbus builds 10 A330s a month and will sustain that record pace through 2015, with output of the model likely to span at least 10 years even as the replacement A350 enters production, John Leahy, the company’s chief salesman, said in London.
