Dubai's Emirates EMIRA.UL, the Arab world's largest airline, has placed an $11 billion order for 32 A380 superjumbo jets from EADS's (EAD.PA) Airbus unit in a surprise opening to the Berlin Air Show.

What happened with the premise and the assurance that Obama will change the relationship we have with Muslim nations? Based on that, shouldn't have Boing be the beneficiary of this contract instead of EAD???

He did. The UAE and Obama are colluding to hurt the U.S. economy. Boeing can pound sand, as far as they are concerned.

Can’t see how they will ever need so much capacity.

Is Dubai the emirate that went broke last year, or the one who almost went broke bailing our their bankrupt neighbor?

Either way, Boeing may well have the last laugh.
