UK-based consultancy IBA predicts orders for between 2,100 and 3,000 aircraft at the Paris Airshow this year.

“Over the past few weeks, we have been focusing heavily on supply chain, order rumors, regional growth, ESG, rising costs, failures pointing the blame at reliability, and strengthening airline results,” said Stuart Hatcher, chief economist at IBA. However, the uncertainty created by “unfeasibly long backlogs and lead times” made it difficult for airlines to place orders if they did not know what their competitors were doing, he said.
