The aircraft
Airbus has billed its XWB as the world's most modern VIP widebody, offering more capacity, capability, comfort and of course, space. The XWB-900 model has slightly less of the latter than its 23-ft longer sibling, the XWB-1000, but it makes up for that with its stellar range. Up to 25 passengers can fly 11,100 nm, or more than 22 hours non-stop.
With a floorspace measuring a staggering 2,905 sq ft, the possibilities are infinite when it comes to creating your ideal space in the clouds to work, party, relax or all of the above.
The technical specs of this jet do not disappoint. The extensive use of advanced materials results in a lighter and more cost-efficient aircraft, while the Roll-Royce Trent XWB engines are quieter and more fuel efficient than previous versions.
