Airbus Targets 900 Jet Deliveries in 2024 Following Strong June Results

Airbus Delivery Performance and Outlook

Internal Goals and Official Guidance

PARIS, July 6 (Reuters) - Airbus has set an internal goal of 900 deliveries this year after handing over 89 jets in June, while keeping its official full-year guidance of 870 deliveries unchanged, industry sources said.

June's total reflects an ongoing surge in deliveries as Airbus catches up on delayed deliveries to China and benefits from some easing of disruption to engine supplies, they said.

Company Response and Media Coverage
