Airbus steals show with last-minute $14 billion Wizz deal

Airbus (AIR.PA) won the Paris Airshow with a last-minute $14 billion (£8.8 billion) deal to sell 110 jets to Hungary's Wizz Air on Thursday, diverting attention from a growing industry debate over how quickly a record backlog of jet orders can be built. The deal, sealed in an all-night negotiating session with ordered-in pizza, avoided a rare defeat for the France-based planemaker at its home arena and is expected to be followed by orders for dozens of A330 jets from China in weeks to come.
