So it’s really only 30 confirmed orders for A330-900s with a massive amount of spin taking that up to the “150” headline figure. The article talks about 52 options but it isn’t exactly clear that those are all new.

Oh, also reported by Bloomberg a few hours ago. https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business...isappointment/
articles like to mislead and create bait and biased title for clouts and views. not surprised this is another case...

articles usually repost existing news as well. I'm sure CX (for now) is done with ordering planes until the B777-300 needs to go (which I doubt)
