FlyDubai expands its fleet beyond Boeing with major Airbus order

FlyDubai, the lower-cost sister airline to long-haul carrier Emirates, announced an order on Tuesday for 150 Airbus A321neo aircraft at the Dubai Air Show.

The purchase, estimated at around $24 billion (€20.71bn), will see the carrier for the first time expand its fleet beyond Boeing. It will also more than double FlyDubai's current fleet of aircraft, while the airline added that it had options to buy another 100 A321neos.
