NOV 03, 2004 (newstodate): Qatar Airways may become the potential customer to trigger the commercial launch of Airbus' new A350 aircraft.
The airline says it will have to make a rather fast decision between the Boeing 7E7 Dreamliner or Airbus A350 as it will have to make a decision by early 2005, already.
Qatar Airways will need to replace its fleet of Airbus A300-600 aircraft by 2008/2009 and a replacement aircraft therefore has to be ordered soon.
Qatar Airways is reported to be in talks with Boeing already over the 7E7.
