Airbus has landed a major deal with China while rival company Boeing battles its 737 Max crisis.
The European plane maker has reached a deal this week to sell 300 passenger jets to Chinese airlines, with the planes worth roughly $35 billion altogether, based on Airbus’ list prices.
The company said in a statement the agreement shows strong demand from all areas of China’s rapidly expanding aviation market, including “domestic, low cost, regional and international long haul.”
