Airbus provisionally delivered over 765 jets in 2024, sources say

Live Mint  

PARIS, Jan 3 - Airbus missed its headline delivery target by a whisker in 2024, provisionally releasing more than 765 jets to airlines and lessors, industry sources said, citing preliminary data. The European planemaker had forecast "around 770" deliveries after lowering its target in July due to supply problems, and averted a potential second profit warning after striking a deal over extra engine supplies in November. But supplies of interiors remain a persistent problem and some deliveries had to be shelved amid complex negotiations between airline, planemaker and seat supplier, leaving the 770 target narrowly out of reach, the sources said. Airbus had already prepared the ground for a slight miss in the delivery target by telling analysts that a shortfall of anything less than 20 jets would not be considered material, and therefore not serious enough to warrant a new profit warning.
