PARIS (Reuters) - Airbus could announce "several hundred" airplane orders at the June 15-21 Paris Airshow, Fabrice Bregier, chief executive of the planemaking unit of Airbus Group, said on Saturday.
Interviewed on French TV news channel i-Tele, he also defended the slow-selling A380 superjumbo and said the world's largest airliner would attract more buyers due to the rapid growth expected in air travel, especially in Asia.
While the 544-seat airliner's design will evolve in the future, radical changes are "not currently on the agenda," Bregier said.
AIRBUS (EAD.PA)is weighing up a request by Dubai's Emirates, the largest A380 operator, to update the plane with new engines.
