a jetliner contract was a new and "worrying" development.
IATA Director General Willie Walsh, who ran airlines group
IAG before taking the helm of the industry's trade
body, said he and other airline industry chiefs hoped to
understand what lay behind the dispute and told reporters it was
important for relations between airlines and suppliers to return
to normal.
