Iberia
has this delivery schedule for the 16 A350-900s that has ordered:
2017: 2x
2018: 3x
2019: 3x
2020: 4x
2021: 4x
2018: 3x
2019: 3x
2020: 4x
2021: 4x
Iberia's
capacity growth to 2020 will be driven by higher growth on Iberia's long haul
network.

To
facilitate this, in Aug/2015 IAG ordered 3 additional A330-200 aircraft for
growth and 8 A350-900 aircraft
as replacement capacity for Iberia through the exercise of previously
negotiated options with Airbus.
Based on the article “Iberia:
the Futuro looks bright for IAG's star pupil as its confidence and growth are
transformed” published in CAPA

ReplyDeleteAirbus seems to be catching up on deliveries, 7 already delivered
ReplyDeletewith 3 in delivery centre waiting to be delivered (MSN 008/011/016
3 in November; Qatar MSN 013, Vietnam MSN017 and Finnair MSN 019
4 in December Qatar MSN 012, Finnair MSN 019/020 and Tam MSN 024
if these were delivered by year end, then that would be 17 A350's -not bad,not bad at all.
I would be pleasantly surprised if they hit 17 frames. So far the 3 at the delivery center has been there almost a month now. QR 5& 6 has been doing customer acceptance flights forever...
