Air India’s massive Airbus and Boeing deal is the largest passenger plane order in HISTORY. The agreement is significant not only for India, but also for Western economies and for sending a strong diplomatic message from India.
It is also a significant step forward in the Tata Group’s expansion plans, and it has the potential to change air traffic patterns over India. Tata’s Air India placed 470 aircraft orders in February 2023, 220 with the American Boeing Company and 250 with the European Airbus.
This agreement surpasses American Airlines’ 2011 order for 460 aircraft as the largest airline order ever made in a single transaction anywhere in the world.
