(Reuters) – Boeing Co is close to closing an order from Japan Airlines Co (JAL) (T:) for at least 20 of its 737 MAX planes, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday, citing sources.
The order will likely be a mix of smaller MAX 8 aircraft and some of Boeing’s (NYSE:) larger MAX 10 aircraft, according to the report.
JAL has also been in talks with Airbus SE (OTC:) but is considering going with Boeing, according to the report, adding that the deal could close by the end of March.
A JAL spokesman said they were still negotiating the deal and declined to provide further details.
Boeing did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
