Boeing's Safety Woes Taking A Toll On Business? Rival Airbus Lands Record $24B Deal Fro Philippines Largest Airline Cebu Pacific
Cebu Pacific Air has chosen to purchase 152 single-aisle jets from Airbus SE (OTC:EADSY) in a preliminary agreement worth $24 billion.
宿霧太平洋航空公司選擇從空中客車集團(ADR)(場外交易：EADSY)購買152架窄體客機，交易初步估值達240億美元。
What Happened: The deal, which is the largest jet purchase in the history of the Philippines, will see Cebu Pacific Air acquiring 102 A321neo jets with an option for an additional 50 planes, Bloomberg reported on Tuesday.
詳情：據彭博社週二報道，這項交易是菲律賓歷史上最大的飛機購買業務，宿霧太平洋航空公司將收購102架A321neo客機，並擁有50架機型的增購選擇權。
"When finalized, the deal will be a significant milestone for the local airline industry," said Mike Szucs, Chief Executive Officer of Cebu Pacific Air.
宿霧太平洋航空公司首席執行官Michael Szucs表示：“一旦最後敲定，合同對於當地航空業是一項重大里程碑。”
The Philippines' largest airline had previously considered both Airbus and Boeing Co. (NYSE:BA) for its next major order. However, the U.S. plane manufacturer failed to secure the deal.
菲律賓最大的航空公司此前曾考慮過將下一重大訂單交給波音公司(NYSE: BA)或空中客車公司。然而，美國飛機制造商未能獲得該訂單。
Cebu Pacific Air currently operates a fleet of approximately 85 Airbus and some smaller ATR turboprop aircraft, with an existing order book of over 30 planes from the European manufacturer.
宿霧太平洋航空目前正使用約85架空中客車公司和一些較小的ATR渦槳飛機，現有訂單簿中訂購了30多架飛機。
Why It Matters: This development comes at a time when Boeing is grappling with safety and regulatory challenges. Just a day before the Cebu Pacific Air deal, Boeing announced the acquisition of Spirit AeroSystems Holdings Inc for $4.7 billion in an all-stock deal to address these issues.
爲何事關重要：波音公司正在應對安全和監管方面的挑戰。就在宿霧太平洋航空的收購交易前一天，波音宣佈以全股票方式斥資47億美元收購Spirit AeroSystems Holdings Inc,以解決這些問題。
Meanwhile, Airbus has been making strategic moves to strengthen its position in the market. The European manufacturer signed a binding term sheet with Spirit AeroSystems for a potential acquisition of key production activities, which included a compensation payment of $559 million to Airbus.
與此同時，空中客車一直在採取戰略行動，加強其在市場上的地位。這家歐洲製造商與Spirit AeroSystems簽署了一份有約束力的術語表，涉及潛在的重要生產活動收購業務，其中包括向空中客車支付5.59億美元的補償金。
Furthermore, amid Boeing's production delays, Airbus had initiated talks to sell over 100 widebody jets to China in June. This move highlighted the growing contrast between Airbus and Boeing in China's aviation market.
此外，在波音的生產延誤之際，空中客車在6月啓動了向中國出售100多架雙通道飛機的談判，凸顯了空中客車與波音在中國航空市場上的巨大差異。
Price Action: On Tuesday, Airbus was trading 2.86% higher at $35.23 during the pre-market while Boeing was trading 0.32% lower at $186.32 at the same time, according to Benzinga Pro.
股價表現：據Benzinga Pro數據，週二，空中客車股價上漲2.86%，至35.23美元，波音股價則同時下跌0.32%，至186.32美元。
