"We are ... really trying our best to assist both
Boeing and Airbus and try to find solutions for them to make sure they
deliver," Badr Mohammed Al Meer said on a panel at the Qatar Economic
Forum in Doha.
"I know they're under so much pressure when it comes to
the supply chain market .. But they need to put more pressure on those
suppliers to make sure that airlines stop the bleeding," he said.
Demand for air travel has rebounded since the pandemic, but
planemakers are struggling to get back to previous production levels due to
disrupted supply chains and a safety crisis at Boeing.
Qatar Airways is unable to meet high post-COVID demand for
travel because of the shortage of new aircraft, Meer said. -Reuters
