The first half of 2025 saw Airbus deliver 306 aircraft which represented a 5.6% decrease from the previous year because supply chain problems persisted throughout production. Airbus received 494 gross orders but the net order total reached 402 after customers canceled their orders.
Airbus delivered 63 aircraft during June which supported its internal delivery projections although the company fell short of its 2024 first-half delivery total of 323 aircraft.
The company maintains its position as the world’s leading commercial aviation manufacturer through its ongoing leadership over Boeing despite Boeing’s U.S. delivery and regulatory issues.
The order momentum at Airbus stays strong because essential carriers maintain their long-term fleet renewal investments even though they face present economic challenges and geopolitical threats. The A350 widebody and A320 narrowbody aircraft families serve as essential components for most airlines’ upcoming fleet development plans.
The delivery rate will increase throughout the second half of the year because supply limitations will decrease and airline bookings will strengthen before 2026.
The company has not modified its complete-year projection. The manufacturer monitors its delivery performance because it works to maintain its market position in both single-aisle and long-haul aircraft while fighting against rising Chinese competition in global jet markets.
