Top 5: Airbus' Most Popular Commercial Aircraft Designs Airbus A320 family 10,562 operating aircraft as of December 2023 of all of Airbus' commercial aircraft, no design has been more successful than the Airbus A320 family. The main leverage for Airbus's most successful design is the commonality among the different variations, from the Airbus A318 to the Airbus A321neo. Indeed, the versatility of this aircraft line allows operators to opt for the right aircraft based on route demand, targeting both low- and high-density routes, now including thin long-haul routes, thanks to the "neo" variants. Additionally, the cockpit commonality of this family of aircraft allows pilots to fly the Airbus A319, A320, and A321 with just one type rating, thus reducing labor costs for airlines. Airbus A330 Family 1,431 operating aircraft as of December 2023, the second-most-popular Airbus design is the Airbus A330, if considered in all its variants, from the smallest, the -200, to the newest one, the -900.The Airbus A330-300 is by far the most common variant of this aircraft design. According to Airbus, the main advantage of operating this aircraft is the possibility of deploying it on both short- and long-haul routes of up to 6,350 NM (11,760 km), giving airlines flexibility in designing their network. Indeed, such a range would allow a carrier to fly from London to almost the entirety of the Americas, Africa, Middle East, and nearly all of the Asia-Pacific region. Airbus A350 Family 585 operating aircraft as of December 2023,The lowest step of the podium is occupied by the Airbus A350, in all its variants, the -900 and -1000.The most common variant is the smaller one, the -900, with 504 aircraft operated by 35 airlines. The A350-900 offers a flight range of 8,300 NM (15,372 km). However, with the Ultra Long Range (ULR) -900 variant, the European manufacturer extended the range to 9,700 NM (17,964 km), translating into direct flights of up to 20 hours. Airbus A220 Family 314 operating aircraft as of December 2023 Airbus' fourth-most-popular aircraft design is its smallest commercial aircraft, the Airbus A220, in its -100 and -300 versions With 255 aircraft in operation as of last month, the -300 variant is the most popular A220 variant. Airbus designed this family of aircraft specifically for the 100-150 seat market and to operate routes of up to 3,450 NM (6,390 km). According to ch-aviation, there are currently just three airlines operating the smaller -100 A220 Airbus A380 233 operating aircraft as of December 2023 ,Last but not least, the Giant of the Skies could not but appear in the top five list of Airbus' most successful aircraft designs. According to Airbus, the A380 has completed more than 300,000 flights and carried more than 300 million passengers since it entered service with Singapore Airlines in 2007. #airbus #airbuslovers

Airbus has achieved a significant milestone with the successful delivery of its first Airbus #A321neo assembled at its newest #A320 Family #FAL in Toulouse. This A321neo, designated for Pegasus Airlines, a leading low-cost carrier in Türkiye, marks the inaugural delivery from Airbus’ latest state-of-the-art production facility. Situated in the former #A380 “Jean-Luc Lagardère” building, the new assembly line underscores Airbus’ commitment to modernization to meet the increasing global demand for the A321neo, which currently represents nearly 65% of Airbus’ A320 Family order backlog. #Airbus Morad Bourouffala Sean Lee Kumar Uttam Mariana Zarpelão Yevgeniya AKINSHINA Jeff Knittel Emmanuel Delpet #pegasusairlines Onur BEKTAŞ Banu Saygılı Mina Salah Julio Peralta Mehmet T Nane Ergun Demirci Aytekin Salter #A320ceo #A320neo #airlines #fleet #passengerexperience #cabin #Sharklets #singleaisleaircraft #fleetmanagement #engines #aircraftengine #aircraftcabin #aircraftmanagement #aircraftemissions #globalfleet #fleetmaintenance #AircraftFleet #aircraft #aircraftcomponent #Components #aircraftparts #innovation #aviationtechnology #Aviationindustry

TOULOUSE- The European plane maker, Airbus, is ready to deploy its newest A321XLR aircraft on a special international route proving campaign from today (September 13, 2023). In January 2018, Airbus was examining an A321LR variant featuring a higher maximum takeoff weight (MTOW). By November of the same year, Airbus had signaled that the A321XLR would possess an MTOW exceeding 100 tonnes (220,000... #A321XLR #airbus #AirbusA321neo #AirbusA321XLR #AirbusA321XLRInternationalRouteProving #AirbusA321XLRInternationalRouteProvingCampaign #AirbusA321XLRNews #RangeRestrictionsonAirbusA321XLR #ScanMeIfYouCan

Learning Something New Everyday Day 3 - 18th January On this day in 2005, Airbus in Toulouse, France unveiled their flagship commercial jet Airbus A380. It is still the world's largest passenger airliner and the only full-length double-deck jet aircraft. The production of A380 ended in 2021 and the $25 Billion Development Cost was not recouped by the time the production for A380 had ended. The main reason accredited to the failure of A380 is considered as the non-viability of the Hub and Spoke model which was thriving when the idea of this Ultra-High Capacity Aircraft was conceived. The airlines underwent a fundamental transition to point-to-point system which gets customers to the destination in 1 flight instead of opting for connecting flights. A380 boast of carrying 555 passengers in a three-class configuration and 853 passengers in single-class economy configuration. This mammoth of an airplane is inspiring story of engineering marvel and a case to study for Business students.

All of these various countries who had involvement or interest in the Dreamliner series were inclined to buy the aircraft. Performance and design This is by far the biggest reason the 787 was popular. Many people today compare it to the A330NEO and A350, which is all well and good, but you have to remember that in 2008 the three closest competitors to the 787 were the A330, A340, and A380. The A330 competed for capacity. In this regard, the two aircraft were very similar however the 787–8 has slightly less seats than the A330–200 and the 787–9 has more seats than the A330–300 (the release of the 787–10 was again to mainly compete with the A350–800, but when the Dreamliner was first released it was only the -8 and -9). The A340, particularly the -500, competed for range. The A340–500 has a bit more range than the 787 (more than any other aircraft at the time), however has much more seats and absolutely flopped in terms of efficiency and sales. A lot of those sales were also lost to the 777NG and A380. The A380 competed for efficiency. Per seat, it’s the most efficient out of the 787’s three early Airbus competitors. Of course per mile or per hour it’s not. The A380 did what the original 747 did to the 707 in the 1970s – it allowed airlines to buy one plane instead of two. Why would you have two daily flights from Sydney to Singapore on the A330 or 787, when you could have one heavily discounted flight that produces the same profit margin? Ultimately, the A380 did steal sales from at least one Dreamliner customer: Lufthansa. But even then, the production run of the 787 was so long that they had time to order 787s even after their A380s had been delivered, flown, and placed into pre-retirement storage. What you have to consider is that the 787 did something that nobody thought was possible – seat fewer people than a 777 with even more comfort, fly further than a 747 with half the fuel capacity, and be so profitable that airlines have placed their second and even third blocks of orders. And it’s not just the long-haul efficiency that turned heads. Those two GEnX-1B turbofans, combined with enough lift and drag reduction to fly a skyscraper, and a fuselage so light it practically floats, result in one of the best performing widebody airliners in history. In fact, the Dreamliner’s flying display at Farnborough Air Show 2014 was so hectic and impressive that the aircraft brought on a new set of rules dictating how manoeuvres should be performed to prevent other planes from crashing. There’s other factors like range, efficiency, speed, comfort, simplicity, modernity, and many more that influenced the Dreamliner’s success. But the simple fact remains: the Boeing 787 is the new wide bodied 737. In fact, the 787 is such a successful plane that countless airlines like Norwegian Air Shuttle, Bamboo Airways, and ZI Pair have used 787s to launch their long-haul fleet, moving from A320s or MD-80s to Dreamliners because they’re essentially just a very big 737.
