FABRICE Bregier, the chief executive officer of Airbus Group SE's airliner unit, said the planemaker plans to offer an improved version of its A380 for service by 2025 although no decision has been made on whether to offer new engines.

Airbus plans to move to an "A380 neo type" for introduction between 2020 and 2025, Mr Bregier told London's Sunday Times. The executive said the planemaker would likely pick just one engine type, not two, as with the current A380, for any new A380 with new engines.
