EgyptAir signs a deal to purchase 10 Airbus aircraft by 2025

EgyptAir announced on Tuesday the signing of a new deal to purchase 10 Airbus A350-900 aircraft during the Dubai Airshow 2023. EgyptAir Chairman and CEO Yehia Zakaria said that the first A350 will be delivered in 2025. When added to the company’s fleet, the A350-900 aircraft contributes to rationalizing fuel consumption by 25%, thus reducing carbon emissions resulting from flights, EgyptAir said. It added that passengers on board these aircraft also enjoy the best travel experiences thanks to the distinctive “AirSpace” cabin from Airbus, which provides spacious luggage spaces and other amenities. “EGYPTAIR is a key partner of Airbus in the Middle East and Africa. We take immense pride in this partnership aimed at furthering the aviation industry. Our focus lies in the enhancement of our fleet to embrace some of the most contemporary aircraft available,” said Zakaria.<br/>
