Airbus SE (AIR.FR) said Thursday that it has signed a memorandum of understanding with Spirit Airlines Inc. (SAVE) for up to 100 A320neo family aircraft.

Under the MoU, the American low-cost airline intends to place a firm order for a mix of A319neo, A320neo and A321neo jets, the European plane maker said.

"The additional aircraft will be used to support Spirit's growth as we add new destinations and expand our network across the U.S., Latin America, and the Caribbean," Spirit Airlines President and Chief Executive Officer Ted Christie said.
