This system is compatible with the worldwide standard wide-body system, which reduces ground equipment and handling costs. The A319, A320 and A321 are unique in their category in offering a containerised cargo loading system that is essential for profitable cargo operations. The wider fuselage also provides unmatched cargo capability. March 2007 has seen the introduction of a brand new cabin design that enhances the feeling of spaciousness and adds even more overhead stowage space whilst reducing noise levels in the cabin. Furthermore, the superior cabin size and shape allows for larger overhead stowage compartments to be fitted, which offer more convenience and lead to faster boarding and deplaning. It allows for top- of- the-range comfort with wider seats and aisles, or an extra-wide aisle for fast turnarounds, which are essential in the low-cost market. The A320 Family's optimised cabin cross-section - the widest single-aisle fuselage on the market - sets the standards for passenger cabin adaptability in this segment.
Fly-by-wire technology pioneered in the A320 Family - and subsequently applied to the A330, A340 and A380 - provide all the benefits of commonality across the Airbus product line.
The A320 Family responds to airlines' needs for optimised cabin layouts, better baggage and cargo handling, maximum operational flexibility on short- and medium-haul routes and lower operating costs that only a new-generation aircraft can offer. The Family comprises four aircraft that share the same cockpit, fly with the same operating procedures, and have the same cabin cross-section and systems. This ensures savings in every element of cash operating cost and provides operators with the highest degree of operational commonality and economy for aircraft in the 100-220-seat category. It features the most modern and complete fly-by-wire technology available on any single-aisle aircraft. Designed to optimise revenue through cabin adaptability and passenger comfort and featuring the most modern and complete fly-by-wire technology available on any single-aisle aircraft, they ensure savings in every element of direct operating cost and provide operators with the highest degree of operational commonality and economy for aircraft in the 100-220 seat category. The A320 Family is designed to optimise revenue through cabin adaptability and passenger comfort. With some 6,300 aircraft ordered and over 3,600 delivered to more than 200 operators by late 2008, the A318, A319, A320 and A321 make up the world's best-selling single-aisle aircraft family.
