And Qantas hasn't actually placed an order, they have just said they will. Sounds minor but airlines say all sorts of stuff. I bet it's based on Airbus actually promising the extra range can be added.

Had top men on the jumpseat, stated 39 A-350's in the livery by end of the deal. Top men not sure what will happen with this but the last 10 LATAM deliveries are on the books as A-350-1000's. 96 Airbus widebodies on property once deliveries of 330 and 350 are done. Sounds pretty good to me. Merry Christmas by the way to everyone.
