Air India has agreed to buy 250 jets from Airbus (AIR.PA), including 210 narrowbody planes and 40 widebody aircraft, N Chandrasekaran, chairman of Tata Group, the airline's new owner said on Tuesday.
The deal is part of a huge order by Air India for 470 planes which is expected to also include an order for 220 planes from Airbus rival Boeing (BA.N) as it heralds a decade-long expansion and reinvents itself under Tata.
