June 11 (Bloomberg) –- Bloomberg's Zainab Fattah reports on Emirates cancelling its order of Airbus A350 wide-body aircraft, valued at about $21.6B, after reviewing its fleet requirements
This is a pretty major business cancellation, and will have a rippling effect globally. Airbus still has many orders for these aircraft, but a 70 aircraft cancellation will be felt in a lot of places. it will be interesting to hear the Emirates side of this story, relative to the whys and wherefores.
