Will Airbus compensate?

[Andrew Ong 1]

I don't think so; the company promised to the airlines to deliver the A380 at its actual dates:

 

1. Singapore Airlines: December, 2006

 

2. Malaysia Airlines: May 2007

 

3. Emirates: September 2007

I'm sure there will some sort of compensation, it happen in any big contract. Anybody knows what form of compensation laid - reduce price, addiitonal spre parts ???
