Airbus has started the year strongly with several orders from unidentified customers including agreements for six A350-900s, three A350 freighters and 10 A330-900s.
It listed orders for 29 widebody jets in January out of a total of 55 aircraft.
These included five A350-1000s for Lufthansa and five A350Fs for Taiwan’s Starlux, which the carriers had previously disclosed.
Another unidentified order, for 25 A320neos, also features in the airframer’s backlog figures for the month, as well as a single A321neo.
The agreements bring firm A350F orders to 63.
