Boeing and Airbus defer narrowbody successor launches as 25–30% efficiency gains remain years away

Senior executives at Boeing and Airbus told investors and industry audiences there are no immediate plans to launch direct successors to the Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 families. Achieving the roughly 25–30% step-change in fuel and emissions efficiency they say a replacement requires is still several years off.

Airco to validate scalable e‑SAF production from direct‑air CO2 Airco will validate a process that captures carbon dioxide directly from the air and converts it, using electro‑synthetic pathways, into sustainable aviation fuel (e‑SAF). The work aims to demonstrate a scalable, carbon‑recycling route that broadens SAF feedstock options beyond biomass and waste streams.
