MONTREAL, Sept 26 (Reuters) - Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL) DAL.N said on Tuesday it is confident that a trade complaint brought by Boeing (NYSE:BA) Co BA.N against the sale of Bombardier Inc BBDb.TO CSeries jets in the United States will be rejected at a later stage.
Delta, which ordered 75 CSeries jets in April 2016, made the statement after the U.S Commerce Department announced a preliminary 219.63 percent countervailing duty on the 110-130 seat planes. The duty is subject to a final ruling by the U.S. International Trade Commission in 2018.
