DUBAI, United Arab Emirates Airline Emirates said Monday it was canceling an order for 10 Airbus A340 jets and was sending a team of technicians to France to assess the accuracy of promised delivery dates for the A380 superjumbo.
The airline, which has ordered 45 of the A380s and is the program's largest customer, said it would also cancel its options for 10 more of the mid-sized A340s.
"Emirates confirms it will not be taking delivery of its order and option for 20 Airbus A340-600 aircraft," an Emirates representative said.
The company is sending a team of technicians to Toulouse in mid-November "in order to assess if the revised timings we have been given for the delayed delivery of our A380s are achievable," said the representative, who asked not to be named because she was not authorized to speak to the media.
She said no decision had yet been made on buying other aircraft to replace the canceled order.
The Wall Street Journal had reported that Emirates Executive Vice Chairman Maurice Flanagan said the carrier would instead order 777 models from Boeing Co.
