With Airbus throwing Pratt & Whitney under the bus this morning, here comes another dump on the engine maker.
American Airlines selects CFM engines and services for Airbus A321neo fleet expansion. American’s future deliveries of Airbus A321neo aircraft will continue to be powered by the CFM LEAP-1A engine. These engines will be installed on Airbus
A321neo aircraft that American ordered two years ago. As part of the expanded partnership, CFM International will continue to provide long-term maintenance for American’s CFM LEAP-1A engines for years to come.
American currently operates 84 A321neo and 5 A321XLR aircraft, with 120 A321neo and 35 A321XLR on order through 2032, all powered by CFM LEAP-1A engines. The airline also has options to purchase 116 additional A320neo family aircraft from Airbus, which, if exercised, will also be outfitted with CFM LEAP-1A engines.
