Excellent move.
It also sort of buries the ridiculous "discounts" we often hear of - e.g. airline XX received discounts of 40% off list prices. Sure there will be discounts, but I think the actual meaningful numbers considering average market values for new deliveries would be less than half that depending on the airline and volumes ordered.

Please note that Airbus doesn't say list prices don't exist anymore, only that they aren't being published anymore. There could be many reasons for this move, but I don't believe it has anything to do with the gap between list and real prices. I think Airbus just wants to keeps its cards even closer to its chest.
Aviation analysts must be very happy ...
I would not be surprised if the main reason for the change was an effort to increase prices by getting rid of the discount rates the customers have been used to ...

And they will travel by a tiny boat instead !!!!! Airbus Orders at Indonesia: Garuda has 14 A339 and another 5 A338 as LOT Lion Air has 8 A339 Aitilink has 2 A339 and 27 A320neo Batik Air has 113 A320neo and 65 A321neo Another piece I read is saying gov is asking airlines to cancel their orders. Considering production rate for A330 to be 4/mo -> Indonesia has ~7 month of production backlog. Considering A330 is having issue to fill the production slots after 2022, I think this is certainly an issue for Airbus

Well it is necessary to look at it complexly - i.e. Lion air is speaking about canceling the HUGE MAX order. So what is left ? To use the boat and forget the air travel. We do know we have a LOT of idiot as top politicians world wide - so nothing worth a lot of interest - only another idiots let us know they are idiots - that is all to this !

This whole story of Indonesia purpotedly not buying from Airbus anymore stems from the European decision to stop importation of palm oil from Indonesia. We shouldn't take the threat at face value.
