RIO DE JANEIRO, June 6 (Reuters) - Some airlines are delaying decisions to exercise aircraft purchase options amid uncertainties related to the war in Iran, which has pushed up jet fuel prices significantly, Embraer CEO Francisco Gomes Neto told Reuters on Saturday.
While the Brazilian planemaker has not seen requests to defer deliveries or a slowdown in active sales campaigns, Gomes Neto noted caution was emerging around incremental commitments.
"Some companies that could be exercising previously signed options are leaving that a bit further ahead to better understand how the situation will evolve," he said on the sidelines of the International Air Transport Association's (IATA) annual summit in Rio de Janeiro.
