As the Paris Air Show enters its final day of trade before the event transforms into a more public orientated affair, it has been reported that Airbus has notched up an estimated $20.9 billion worth of contracts.
According to Reuters, Airbus secured $14.2 billion worth of aircraft orders and provisional purchases worth $6.7 billion. The estimates were based on Cirium Ascend data.
As the final trade day, June 19, 2025, could still throw up some surprises, but it is generally thought that the main business dealings are signed off over the first three days.
From June 20, 2025, the general public will represent the majority of spectators at the air show as it orientates towards a more family-focused event.
