How did Emirates rescue the Airbus A380?

The Gulf Airlines is finally maintaining its order of 20 A380s with 16 options for $ 16 billion. This order is saving for Airbus which has not received orders for the super-jumbo for 2 years.

The Dubai company, which operates 105 A380s, is the main customer of the big carrier. The 36 A380s ordered will be equipped with Trent 900. In order to maintain the production line of the A380, deliveries will run until 2027. Of a hundred or so aircraft, 57 are destined for Emirates. The Gulf company is seeking to expand its presence in France, serving more cities such as Marseille, Toulouse, Bordeaux and Nantes. As a reminder, in order to create new flights, Emirates must negotiate flight permits with the French government. Thanks to this order, the company will have more weight during negotiations.
