Airbus delivered 81 aircraft in May 2026.
This represents a 59% increase compared to the same month last year. Total deliveries for the year have reached 262 aircraft. The volume surge follows the resolution of administrative delays regarding handovers to Chinese airlines. The company remains on track to meet its full-year target of 870 jets.
The A320 aircraft family surpassed 20,000 gross orders in May. This milestone establishes the program as the best-selling commercial aircraft in history. Total net orders for the year stand at 762 after accounting for cancellations.
