Inqwelomoya esekwe eCalifornia iVirgin America Inc. inokuba nomdla ekuthengeni iinqwelomoya zeFrontier Airlines 'Airbus ukuba iSouthwest Airlines iphumelele kwibhidi layo lomthwali weDenver, ngokwengxelo yeendaba ngoLwesibili.
I-CEO yaseVirgin America uDavid Cush uxelele iBloomberg News kudliwanondlebe ukuba inqwelomoya yakhe, ebhabha iinqwelomoya ze-Airbus, inokuba nomdla kwiijethi ze-Airbus ezingama-40 eziphantsi kweFrontier Airlines Holdings Inc.
Amagosa asemazantsi-ntshona athi ukuba ibhidi labo le-170 lezigidi zeedola ze-Frontier liphumelele, ekugqibeleni baya kuzilahla iinqanawa ze-Airbus ze-Frontier. UMzantsi-ntshona ubhabha iijethi zeBoeing.
I-Bloomberg yaqaphela ukuba uninzi lweejethi zeFrontier zineminyaka emihlanu ubudala okanye ngaphantsi, kwaye iijethi ze-elektroniki kunye neenjini ziya kuhambelana nezixhobo zeVirgin America.
“Ezo ziinqwelomoya zamva nje, kwaye phantsi koqoqosho olufanelekileyo, singaba nomdla,” uCush uxelele iBloomberg. “Xa uthatha inqwelomoya esele isebenzile, uya kujonga into eqhelekileyo. Zinee-avionics ezifanayo kunye neenjini. Singanomdla wokuyijonga loo nto.”
