With the focus of the 787 Dreamliner being that of long range with smaller passenger capacity‚ Boeing is anticipating that more direct routes to international cities will be developed rather than the typical hub and spoke routes which currently dominate the airline industry. Airbus’ overall strategy is focused more on the hub

Boeing versus Airbus 1. Do you believe Airbus could have become a viable competitor without subsidies? Given the competitive dynamics in the commercial aircraft industry‚ it is not likely that Airbus could have become a viable competitor without subsidies.
