Airbus Sees Strongest First Half Since 2019 Amid Supply Chain Recovery

Airbus has set an internal goal to exceed 900 deliveries for the first time this year after a strong June, with 89 jets handed over. This marks the company’s strongest first-half performance since 2019, with deliveries up 15% from the same period last year. The surge in deliveries partially reflects a temporary catch-up on delayed deliveries to China and an easing of engine supply disruptions. Airbus declined to comment on deliveries ahead of a monthly release. The news was first reported by Reuters.
