ANKARA, Turkey: Over the weekend, Turkey’s state-run news agency Anadolu said that during a meeting in Istanbul, Turkish Airlines and European plane maker Airbus discussed a potential order of 355 new aircraft.
Officials from Turkish Airlines said that in addition to 10 A350-900s for which terms have already been agreed, they could purchase 75 wide-body A350-900, 15 wide-body A350-1000 aircraft, 250 narrow-body A321neo aircraft, five A350F cargo aircraft.
The order will be the largest in the airline’s history if the deal goes through.
In May, Turkish Airlines chairman Ahmet Bolat said the company was planning to order a total of 600 new aircraft in June, which would be delivered within 10 years.
Part of the order would be optional and the final order would depend on a government decision, which is expected in two months, he added in June.
Anadolu also reported that Turkish Airlines officials also held talks with Rolls Royce for engine maintenance services and spare engines for the A350 wide-bodies.
