“Supply Chain Issues” Further Delay Qantas’ First Airbus A350-1000ULR
The highly anticipated ultra-long-range (ULR) Airbus A350-1000 in development to join Qantas’ fleet is facing another delay due to undisclosed “supply chain issues,” according to Airbus. Bloomberg News reported early Monday May 25th that the first A350-1000ULR is expected to arrive in early 2027, slipping past the original delivery target at the end of this year.
