Aviation News – Airbus has reduced its full-year commercial aircraft delivery target to about 790 jets, a 4% cut, while reaffirming its financial goals—a shift that reassured markets despite the industrial setback.
Airbus announced the revised target on Wednesday, citing ongoing production pressures across its supply chain. The European planemaker emphasized that despite the adjustment, its core profitability expectations for the year remain unchanged, prompting a positive reaction from investors as the company sought to stabilize confidence.
The cut reflects continued strain on aircraft manufacturing lines, where global shortages of components and labor have slowed output. With Airbus still operating at high production levels, the company said the updated goal better aligns with current operational realities while ensuring reliable delivery schedules for airline customers.
