The Airbus A320 is a popular narrow-body jet airliner first introduced in 1988. Known for its efficiency and versatility, it typically seats between 140 and 240 passengers. The A320 boasts a wingspan of 35.8 meters and a range of approximately 6,300 km, making it ideal for short to medium-haul routes. Its advanced aerodynamic design and modern engines, such as the CFM56 or the newer Pratt & Whitney PW1100G, contribute to its fuel efficiency and reduced environmental impact. The A320 remains a cornerstone of many airlines' fleets due to its reliability and cost-effectiveness.
