Air France-KLM has converted the letter of intent it signed last December to buy four Airbus A350F aircraft into a firm order that includes purchase rights for an additional four of the new-generation freighters.
The European Commission (EC) has added 21 Russian airlines to the list of airlines banned from operating or subject to operational restrictions within the EU, saying moves to force the re-registration of foreign-owned aircraft pose “an immediate safety threat.”
