Day 3: November 19, 2019

$16 billion: Emirates unveils orders for 50 Airbus 350-900 WXB widebody aircraft, with delivery to begin in May 2023. Emirates already has a whopping 271 large aircraft, including 113 Airbus A380 superjumbos and 158 Boeing 777 planes. The deal replaces an earlier plan to buy 30 A350s and 40 A330neos in a deal worth $21.4 billion, but Emirates said that discussions on purchasing the A330neos could still be revived.

$3.6 billion: Estimated value of 30 Boeing 737 Max planes ordered by Kazakhstan's flag carrier Air Astana. The airline plans to buy 30 of the 737 MAX, with the "letter of intent" to be finalised in coming months. In June, Boeing secured a letter of intent by British Airways parent IAG to buy 200 of the still-grounded B-737 Max planes.
