“EVA Air’s new orders underscore the enduring appeal of the A350-1000 Long Range Leader as the benchmark for intercontinental operations, and the A321neo as a leader in regional efficiency. We deeply value EVA Air’s confidence in these latest generation aircraft and stand ready to support their seamless integration into the airline’s fleet for future success,” said Benoît de Saint-Exupéry, Airbus EVP Sales of the Commercial Aircraft business.

The A350 represents the most advanced and efficient widebody aircraft globally, establishing new benchmarks in intercontinental transportation. It boasts the longest range of any commercial jet currently in operation. Equipped with cutting-edge Rolls-Royce engines, this aircraft can travel non-stop for up to 9,700 nautical miles (18,000 kilometers), consuming 25% less fuel compared to older models and achieving a similar decrease in carbon emissions.

Like all Airbus aircraft, the A350 can use up to 50% Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). Airbus aims to enable its aircraft to operate with 100% SAF by 2030.

The A350 Family has secured over 1,360 orders from 60 customers globally, with more than 640 aircraft currently part of the fleets of 38 operators, mostly servicing long-haul routes.

The A321neo belongs to the A320neo Family and features advanced technologies such as next-generation engines, Sharklets, and improvements for cabin efficiency. These innovations collectively result in a 20% reduction in fuel consumption. Since its debut in 2016, the A321neo has garnered over 6,800 orders from more than 90 customers, securing over 80% of the market share.
