Airbus SE

European aircraft manufacturer Airbus <a href="https://www.airbus.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2025-11-airbus-update-on-a320-family-precautionary-fleet-action">has warned</a> that it needs to update the software for a significant part of its A320 fleet of around 6,000 aircraft. In most cases, the software can be updated from the cockpit, but about 1,000 older aircraft will require hardware replacement. That will result in the machines having to be taken out of service for a while, Bloomberg's sources <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-28/airbus-warns-a320-fleet-needs-software-fix-after-solar-incident">said</a>.

The airline decided to change its procurement strategy for the first time and placed an order for 150 narrow-body A321neo from Boeing's competitor, Europe's Airbus. The deal is in the form of a memorandum of understanding and was announced on Tuesday at the Dubai Airshow.
