The deal boosts the airline’s backlog to 24 A350-1000s and 18 A321neo aircraft, underscoring its strategic push toward fleet modernisation and sustainability.

Clay Sun, President of EVA Air, highlighted the significance of the acquisition:
“The new additions to our fleet reaffirm our commitment to sustainable aviation and delivering an exceptional travel experience. Both the A350-1000 and A321neo set a high standard in their respective categories, offering remarkable efficiency and comfort to our passengers. As we move forward with our fleet and network expansion plans, we look forward to leveraging the aircraft’s extended range and efficiency to strengthen our market position.”

Benoît de Saint-Exupéry, Executive Vice President of Sales at Airbus, added:
