    The head of Emirates Airlines has said orders for the A380 jet from Airbus might not be enough, considering improving passenger demand in the region.

    Emirates president Tim Clark has said the airline’s record A380 jet order of 90 aircraft should have been a lot bigger.

    Emirates is the world’s biggest airline by international traffic and is already the number one customer for Airbus’s 517 seat plane.

    Emirates has 12 Airbus A380’s in its fleet, with another three to be delivered by November.

    Deliveries will then restart in September of next year.
