How come, that some Airlines have taken delivery of more aircraft than others at the same point of the game? For example, the A350-900, most Airlines, including my own have 18 ac right now, but one has already 28, thats 10 more, how does that work?
thx

I never undestand this.

Watch the used bins........some times you will find new planes hit the bin and they snap them up off the used bin.

i did that with some A380's but they were like 2 years old, 2 years after delivery started...
but who would drop 10 A350's at this point, they are not even one year old?!

Maybe they tried them, and the aircraft didn't work for their purposes.

Or maybe they bankrupted their airline...

I picked up 40 brand new 787s a couple of days ago from the used market... You just have to look out.

Yep, in O2, I have almost 300 737-300 right now, plus countless A310-200, 310-300, 767-200, 757-200..........far out striping any delivery timing I could have had with normal deliveries.

You just have to watch the used bin.

ok, thanks for the answers.

i got one more question, a few days ago, i noticed that one airline, was supposed to take over 30 aircraft of the same typ in just one day, how is that going to work? did he/she just defer all the orders to one day?

[2ndAcr]

That is what it sounds like, deferred the delivery date.
