Korean Air will purchase an additional three A380 superjumbo jets from Airbus on top of five jets it had earlier agreed to buy, a company official said on Wednesday.
The additional purchase by South Korea’s largest carrier came through exercising an option contained in the original contract, the official added, but declined to give the value of the deal.
Delivery of the planes in the contract will start in 2010.
