Airbus CEO says H1 deliveries consistent with annual goal

FARNBOROUGH, England, July 21 (Reuters) - Airbus is on track towards its full-year target of 870 deliveries after a 15% increase in the first half of the year as engine supplies stabilised, CEO Guillaume Faury told CNBC TV.

"We have delivered 15% more aircraft in the first half of 2026 than we did in the first half of 2025. So that's very consistent with the ramp-up trajectory we want to deliver this year," Faury told CNBC on the sidelines of the Farnborough Airshow, according to excerpts released by the news channel.
