Airline EasyJet has placed a new multi-billion-pound deal with Airbus for a new fleet of aircraft.
In a further boost to Airbus’s wing-making factory at Broughton, in North Wales, the airline has confirmed it will buy 56 Airbus A320neo aircraft, as well as convert an order of 18 A320neo jets to the same number of A321neo aircraft.
The planes will be delivered between 2026 and 2029 to replace older A319 and A320 aircraft.
