Singapore Air says A380 delays will affect deliveries

SINGAPORE, May 13 (Reuters) - Singapore Airlines (SIAL.SI: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) said on Tuesday that it expects to receive its fifth A380 superjumbo by early July and sees some impact on subsequent deliveries after Airbus (EAD.PA: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) announced further delays.

"The changes in production schedules will potentially have some impact, the details of which we will need to understand from Airbus," Singapore Air spokesman Stephen Forshaw said in an email.
