Financial Crisis Questions Deal of Aeroflot and Airbus
The financial crisis may force Russia’s biggest airlines Aeroflot to revise the deal for buying new Airbus jets, AFP reported with reference to Aeroflot GD Valery Okulov.
According to Okulov, the acquisition of ordered jets, first of all Airbus 320-330, will be questioned should the credit terms worsen. At the same time Okulov said that Aeroflot doesn’t intend to trim orders for new jets, Interfax reported.
Aeroflot and Airbus clinched the deal for supplies of five A321 jets in July of 2008, in time of the International Farnborough Air Show. A year earlier, during Le Bourget Air Show, the companies inked the contract for supplies of 22 A350 jets.
