In late September, European manufacturer Airbus celebrated the delivery of its 500th A350 – an A350-900 – which was received by Spanish airline Iberia<\/strong>, a major customer with 20 A350s on order and 14 in service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than just a symbol, the 500th A350 marks an important milestone for Airbus and its growing family of aircraft, which includes the A350-900, A350-1000 and A350F freighter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“When we designed the A350 and delivered the first one, we were extremely proud to have created a real clean sheet, state-of-the-art aircraft, delivering unmatched performance and economics. It offers outstanding space, comfort and quietness to the passengers, and it contributes significantly to decarbonising aviation. The A350 is providing today a versatile platform to support our customers’ strategy in front of a more and more complex environment” says Philippe Mhun, EVP Programmes and Services at Airbus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Introducing the A350 new Production Standard<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This 500th delivery also marks the introduction of the new Production Standard 2022 which brings additional performance and cabin improvements for both A350-900 and A350-1000. Compared to previous standards, it brings a weight reduction of up to 1.2 tonnes by optimising systems and structures and increasing the use of advanced materials which already represent more than 70% of the aircraft. The Maximum Takeoff Weight is also increased by 3 tonnes allowing each model to maintain its maximum range capability, beyond 8,000nm, while carrying an increased payload. The new standard comes with a wider interior cabin at armest level. This increase in cabin space allows airlines the flexibility to offer more than 30 additional seats in a typical 3-class configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These improvements provide operators with increased profitability and flexibility, while offering passengers more space and comfort in the quietest cabin of its category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To date, the A350 Family flies in the liveries of 39 airlines on over 900 routes worldwide<\/p>\n\n\n\n
