Some orders announced in Paris already…
Qatar – 24 Airbus A320
KLM Cityhopper – firmed up 7x E-190 options
Air Nostrum – a further 15 CRJ-1000s added to their order
Perhaps the most suprising, Malev has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) for upto 30 Sukhoi Superjet 100s.

Does this come in addition to the 7 E190s announced a month or two ago, or is this a reminder to the stock brokers? :p
Just a reminder 😉

PARIS 2009: Qatar confirms order for 24 A320s
Graham Dunn, Paris (15Jun09, 13:10 GMT, 149 words)Qatar Airways has signed a firm contract for 24 Airbus A320 family aircraft today at the Paris air show, including firming up options on four A321s it placed at the Farnborough air show a year ago.
Deliveries of the new aircraft begin with the first A321 in November this year and will run to the end of 2012. The carrier, which already operates 19 A320s, has again selected International Aero Engines V2500 engines to power the additional aircraft.
The carrier will deploy the aircraft in a two-class configuration on regional, eastern European and southwest Asian services.
Speaking at a press conference to announce the order during the Paris air show, Qatar Airways CEO Akbar Al Baker said: “With a large mix of narrowbody and widebody in our fleet, this gives us even greater flexibility in our commercial operations, allowing us to deploy aircraft specific routes depending on market conditions.”
