    Bullshit. Those orders are not given at an Airshow, that’s ridiculous.
    You don’t just attend an airshow and decide to order €5 billion worth of anything. ( minimum price for 50pcs of Airbus a350-1000 )

      Obviously the orders are negotiated months beforehand and just published at the airshow for some free PR for both parties.

      PARIS, June 18 (Reuters) - Airbus secured more aircraft orders on Wednesday, raising its total to $21 billion at this week’s subdued Paris Air Show, while rival Boeing opted not to announce new sales following last week’s Air India 787 crash.

      Airbus firmed up an order for 10 long-haul jets from Taiwan’s Starlux Airlines in a boost for the European planemaker after one of its biggest customers, AirAsia, dashed expectations of another grand finale matching its earlier expansion.

      Airbus won a total of 148 firm orders worth $14.2 billion including six previous ones disclosed publicly for the time, plus 102 provisional orders worth $6.7 billion, according to estimated delivery prices from UK-based Cirium Ascend.

      Investing.com - The Paris Air Show, held annually in a suburb outside of Paris, normally features a raft of high-profile deals among some of the aviation industry’s biggest names, but this year’s event has been more subdued following a deadly Air India crash last week.

      With the show now open exclusively to trade visitors for one more day, Europe’s Airbus has said it has secured a total of 148 orders worth $14.2 billion, along with 102 provisional orders worth $6.7 billion, according to Reuters, citing estimated delivery prices from U.K. firm Cirium Ascend. On Wednesday, the jetmaker said it had notched an order for 10 long-haul jets from Taiwan’s Starlux Airlines.
