BERLIN (AP) — German automaker BMW AG said Friday it will help Airbus design its new A350 jet — the chief rival of Boeing's 787 Dreamliner.

The planned cooperation was first reported by the financial daily Handelsblatt, which cited sources at Airbus as saying that BMW would design a cabin for the A350 that will provide customers with greater comfort.

BMW spokesman Michael Rebspock confirmed that an agreement had been made, but declined to give details.


There's hope yet for a comfortable airplane seat and surroundings.
