Airbus posts 793 deliveries and 889 net orders in 2025; trims 2026 guide to ~870 as A320neo engine shortages slow ramp-up

Airbus delivered 793 aircraft in 2025, booked 1,000 gross (889 net) orders and reported €6.1bn EBIT, but cut its 2026 delivery target to roughly 870 jets as A320neo family production is constrained by Pratt & Whitney engine shortages and wider supply‑chain bottlenecks.

Briefing

What Hype is tracking

  • Airbus delivered 793 jets in 2025, added ~1,000 gross (889 net) orders and reported €6.1bn EBIT, yet lowered its 2026 target to ~870 — showing supply, not demand, is the binding constraint.

  • A320neo engine shortfalls, largely linked to PW1100G availability, are directly slowing single‑aisle production and forcing operational mitigations PW1100G constraints.

  • The pause highlights broader supplier fragility and is driving strategic moves such as insourcing and delivery prioritisation across the sector supplier insourcing and prioritisation, which will affect OEM scheduling, airline fleet plans and leasing markets.
