With a strong order book from airline operators and leasing companies based in India, China and Singapore during 2020–2024, Airbus has strengthened its position in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) commercial aircraft market, according to data and analytics company GlobalData. 
 
GlobalData’s dashboard Commercial Aircraft Orders and Deliveries says that in the APAC region, Airbus received a total of 1,489 aircraft orders between 2020 and 2024 (till March 2024), compared to 561 aircraft orders for Boeing. 
 
Gone Sai Kiran, aerospace and defence analyst at GlobalData, said: “Notable Airbus customers in the region, including Indigo Airlines, Air India, China Eastern Airlines, China Southern Airlines, and BOC Aviation, have either chosen not to order from Boeing or have ordered fewer units from Boeing compared to Airbus. 
 
“Indigo Airlines has the highest number of Airbus orders of 510 aircraft, compared to none from Boeing. 
 
"On the other hand, Air India has ordered 250 aircraft from Airbus, complemented by 220 aircraft from Boeing. BOC Aviation and China Eastern Airlines have ordered 107 and 100 aircraft from Airbus, respectively, omitting Boeing from their procurement portfolio. A major reason for Chinese airline operators to avoid ordering from Boeing could be the US-China trade war that was witnessed in recent years.”
