Caribbean Airlines is to replace its current fleet of 12 Boeing 737-800s with the same number of 737 MAX 8s.

Air France plans to reduce its 10-strong Airbus A380 fleet by returning at least two— and potentially all—of the five leased A380s the carrier operates.

Airbus is confident the A330neo will gain “more traction” in the market once airlines were able to verify the aircraft’s in-service performance, now that TAP Air Portugal has taken delivery of the first A330-900.

Airbus is targeting mid-2020 to have the increased gross weight version of the A330neo in service.

Boeing will hold a set of regional meetings and conference calls next week with 737 MAX customers to address their questions and concerns about a new system that was introduced on the re-engined narrowbody.
