Boeing (BA) and Airbus are in early discussions with Saudia, Saudi Arabia's flagship carrier that is looking to buy at least 150 widebody and narrowbody jets, Bloomberg reported Thursday, citing people familiar with the matter.
The purchase would be the largest ever for the carrier, which hasn't decided on types or quantities of planes yet, the report said, citing the people.
Boeing didn't immediately reply to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
