SYDNEY :Qantas Airways Ltd will announce on Monday a landmark order for Airbus SE A350-1000 jets capable of non-stop flights from Sydney to London as part of a wider deal with the European planemaker, industry sources told Reuters on Sunday.
The expected news comes days after Boeing Co further delayed development of its 777X jetliner which had at one stage been in contention to ease direct flights from Australia's east coast to London and New York. Sydney-based Qantas, which said it would make a significant announcement on Monday about the future of its network, declined to comment. Airbus did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
