PARIS (Reuters) - Airbus delivered 61 aircraft in April, up 13% from the same month of 2023, bringing deliveries so far this year to 203, the European planemaker said on Tuesday.

An unidentified airline ordered 51 A321neo jets during the month and British Airways owner IAG reshuffled five narrow-body planes within its group, Airbus monthly data showed.

So far this year, the world's largest planemaker has delivered 203 airplanes and sold 227 - or 222 after allowing for the conversions within the IAG airline group's order book.
