Lufthansa Airlines has announced that it will not accept additional deliveries of A320 NEO aircraft until certain conditions - which have been communicated to Airbus - are met. The corrective actions being mandated by the airline are reportedly tied to engine issues, as well as airplane fault codes identified with the first aircraft. Lufthansa has received two A320 NEOs to date, but has formally accepted only the first aircraft in operational service.
