Airbus A320 Etihad Airways

The Airbus A320 family also includes the A319 and A318, short range airliners designed and built in Europe by Airbus Industries. The aircraft can accommodate up to 220 passengers and has a range of up to 6,500 miles depending on the aircraft type. The A320 can be powered by either two CFM56 or two IAE V2530 jet engines. In excess of 6,200 aircraft have been built and a new production plant in Mobile Alabama began in 2013 to assemble the A320 family.

In 2010 Airbus announced the launch of the next generation A320 family with the A320neo (New Engine Option) that will use either CFM International LEAP-X or Pratt and Whitney PW1000G engines. The A320E will also feature swept wingtips, or sharklets, and improved weight saving and cabin design.
