Emirates says “NO” to Airbus A350! What’s WRONG???
After the Paris Air Show in June 2023, which is more likely a competition between the two aircraft manufacturing giants, Airbus, as the winner, went home happy with 830 on a total of 1100 orders from carriers. However, the situation was reversed as soon as the Dubai Air Show took place in November of the same year, in which Boeing chalked up 295 aircraft orders, three times more than Airbus’ 86. And the shocking point was about the poor order of the A3 50 with particularly no order for the latest and largest variant, the A3 50-1000. Even a such giant like Emirates Airlines, which is always looking for bigger aircraft, humbly ordered only the smaller version, the A3 50-900, with 15 units. Ethiopian Airlines and EgyptAir also made their decision to buy respectively 11 and 10 units of the A3 50 but they were all about the -900 variant.

Emirates says “NO” to Airbus A350! What’s WRONG??? At first glance, it seems like this is not a big deal and Airbus wouldn’t get any damage at all since their sales are still going up, evidenced by the orders they received for the -900 model. But when looking closer at the competition between Boeing and Airbus in terms of fulfilling airlines’ demands, it would be a completely different situation. For those airlines that are operating from a single big airport hub like Emirates and some other Gulf airlines, really big jets are necessary for them to make full use of their hub capacity and maintain the number of aircraft arrivals and departures at manageable levels.
