SINGAPORE Airlines, one of the launch customers for the Airbus A380 superjumbo, is considering cancelling part of its 19 aircraft order worth $5.2bn (£2.6bn, E3.9bn).

It would be the first passenger airline to cancel planes and be a significant blow to troubled Airbus after FedEx’s recent withdrawal of an order for 10 cargo aircraft.
