AirAsia X looks further into Airbus A330neo


"The A350 is not an aircraft we will buy," AirAsia X co-group CEO Tony Fernandes said.

SINGAPORE: AirAsia X Bhd needs to ensure the price, performance and engines of the Airbus SE A330neo are right before it will “finally confirm” its order for 66 of the jets, its co-group chief executive said.

AirAsia X, the long-haul arm of low-cost carrier AirAsia Group Bhd, is the largest customer for the A330neo, which is struggling for sales relative to the rival Boeing Co 787.
