"United CEO Initiates Airbus Discussions Amid Boeing Delays, Sources Report"

United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby has reportedly approached Airbus about potentially buying more A321neo jets to compensate for the delayed Boeing 737 Max 10, following concerns over the certification of the Max 10 after an Alaska Airlines 737 Max 9 mid-air emergency. Talks are in early stages, and no deal is guaranteed. This move comes as Airbus seeks to buy back A321neo positions from the market. The potential deal could impact United's existing order for 45 A350s from Airbus, with discussions likely to intensify as Boeing faces challenges in meeting its contractual deliveries.
