IAG Firms Up Order For Eight Airbus A350-900s

New Widebody Airliner Joins Iberia's Long-Haul Fleet

International Airlines Group (IAG) has converted eight A350-900 options into firm orders for Iberia. The airline becomes a new customer for the A350XWB Family. The aircraft will be equipped with Rolls Royce Trent XWB engines.

IAG secured commercial terms for the A350 aircraft as part of the Group long-haul order announced in April 2013.

“We are very proud that IAG has chosen the A350-900 aircraft for Iberia. We welcome a new operator of the most efficient mid-size long-haul aircraft in the market,” said John Leahy, Airbus Chief Operating Officer, Customers. “The A350XWB is the aircraft of choice in its category and set to become a reference among passengers for its unrivalled cabin comfort and quietness." ‎

The A350 XWB is the latest addition to the Airbus Widebody product line. Airbus says the all-new mid-size long-range A350 XWB Family comprises three versions from 276 to 369 seats. The A350 has carbon fiber fuselage and wings and sets new standards in terms of passenger experience, operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness. At the end of June 2014, the A350 XWB had won 742 orders from 38 customers worldwide.
