Boeing Wins $13.8B Singapore Airlines Order

Singapore Airlines announced a $13.8 billion order to buy 39 Boeing wide-body aircraft as it pursues expansion opportunities, a setback for the U.S. planemaker’s rival Airbus Group in the fight for long-term orders. Airbus Group has flagged its intention to build a bigger version of its A350, although these plans have been placed on hold amid uncertainty over demand for wide-body jets.
