Flydubai CEO says range and size drove Airbus jet order
Nov 18, 2025 11:19 PM

DUBAI, Nov 19 (Reuters) - The CEO of flydubai said on

Wednesday the carrier had picked Airbus A321neo jets at

the Dubai Airshow this week because of their range and size, but

did not rule out a further order from long-time supplier Boeing ( BA ).

Ghaith Al Gaith said in an interview that the door had

always been open to Airbus since the airline's 2008 debut, but

described Boeing ( BA ) as "my home" and said the U.S.

planemaker would emerge stronger from its recent crisis.

He declined, however, to say whether flydubai would announce

a further order for Boeing ( BA ) jets at the November 17-21 air show.
