EVA Air has announced a deal with Airbus to secure new aircraft from the European plane maker.
At list price, the deal was reported to be worth just over USD 10 billion. However, customers will never pay the list price value for these aircraft.
A Commitment To New Widebody Jets
As part of the latest commitment, EVA Air has announced a deal for 18 Airbus A350-1000s, the A350 series’ longest variant.
The Rolls-Royce Trent XWB engines power these Airbus A350-1000s, and the variant has become a globally recognized aircraft for customers.
The delivery timeframe for the A350-1000 deal has yet to be officially revealed.
EVA Commits To The Airbus A321neo
The Airbus A321neo has quickly become one of the most in-demand narrowbody aircraft worldwide.
EVA Air has announced a deal for 15 Airbus A321neos to support its future regional operations.
The delivery timeframe and any potential options have yet to be revealed. These details are expected to be announced at a later date.
The EVA Air Fleet
EVA Air currently operates 85 in-service aircraft, per Cirium data.
The airline’s largest fleet type by active units is the 777-300ER, with 34 in service.
These Boeing 777s average 10.6 years old. As a result, this aircraft type is still relatively young.
However, the airline’s oldest aircraft type by average age is the A330-200, at 17.9 years.
The airline operates Boeing 787-9s and 787-10s as part of its next-generation widebody fleet. These aircraft types are among the youngest in operation currently.
