(Corrects CEO name to “Ghaith Al Ghaith” from “Ghaith Al Gaith”)
DUBAI (Reuters) -The CEO of flydubai said on Wednesday the carrier had picked Airbus A321neo jets at the Dubai Airshow this week because of their range and size, but did not rule out a further order from long-time supplier Boeing.
Ghaith Al Ghaith said in an interview that the door had always been open to Airbus since the airline’s 2008 debut, but described Boeing as “my home” and said the U.S. planemaker would emerge stronger from its recent crisis.
He declined, however, to say whether flydubai would announce a further order for Boeing jets at the November 17-21 air show.
