EVA Air has confirmed a firm order for six long-range Airbus A350-1000s and three A321neo aircraft, following its earlier commitment made in March 2025. This brings the airline's outstanding aircraft orders to 24 A350-1000s and 18 A321neos.
Clay Sun, President of EVA Air, highlighted the airline's focus on sustainable aviation and passenger comfort, stating that both aircraft models offer superior efficiency and enhanced travel experiences. The new additions will support EVA Air's fleet and network expansion plans.
Airbus EVP Sales, Benoît de Saint-Exupéry, praised the airline's continued trust in Airbus, noting the A350-1000's position as the benchmark for long-haul operations and the A321neo's efficiency in regional travel.
The A350 is currently the most advanced wide-body aircraft in production, capable of flying up to 9,700 nautical miles while consuming 25% less fuel than older models. It also offers significant reductions in carbon emissions and can operate on up to 50% sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), with Airbus aiming for 100% SAF capability by 2030.
To date, over 1,360 A350s have been ordered by 60 customers, with more than 640 already in operation across 38 airlines
