<strong>A350</strong> <strong>XWB</strong>:<br />
One complete<br />
market matching<br />
family<br />
The <strong>A350</strong> <strong>XWB</strong> has known one of the most successful<br />
commercial launches in the aircraft industry, with a<br />
wide customer base around the world: from the US to<br />
Middle-East, from Europe to Asia.<br />
This success reflects the close fit between the <strong>A350</strong> <strong>XWB</strong><br />
and the needs expressed by the market:<br />
• 25% step reduction in seat-mile costs<br />
• 25% lower CO2 emissions<br />
• Wide cabin for enhanced comfort and efficiency<br />
1 aircraft, 3 different sizes<br />
The <strong>A350</strong>-800, <strong>A350</strong>-900 and <strong>A350</strong>-1000<br />
share the same cross section, cockpit and<br />
pilot type rating.<br />
They also have common interior, systems,<br />
operating and maintenance procedures,<br />
and the same family of engines.<br />
Flexibility to fit every market:<br />
from all premium-class<br />
to high-density economy<br />

and comfort<br />
The brand new cross section of the <strong>A350</strong> <strong>XWB</strong><br />
provides passengers with high levels of comfort.<br />
The extra widebody fuselage offers the advantage<br />
of being able to accommodate economy<br />
class passengers at 8, 9 or even 10 abreast.<br />
Those generous dimensions also provide<br />
additionnal space for optimized integration<br />
of innovative premium class solutions.<br />
The <strong>A350</strong> <strong>XWB</strong> cabin design, with its smooth<br />
curves, flowing lines, innovative lighting and<br />
its wide windows helps create a pleasant and<br />
soothing atmosphere.<br />
The <strong>A350</strong> <strong>XWB</strong> also increases passengers<br />
well-being with its low cabin altitude (6,000ft),<br />
advanced air filtering and efficient air &<br />
temperature management.<br />

<strong>Shaping</strong><br />
eco-efficiency<br />
Recognizing the need for a sustainable development<br />
of air travel, the environment will benefit from the<br />
efficiency inherent in the <strong>A350</strong> <strong>XWB</strong> Family.<br />
Next generation engines and state of the art<br />
aerodynamics help reduce emissions well below<br />
current and future regulations.<br />
NOx emissions will be up to 40% lower than CAEP/6<br />
requirements and exterior noise levels will be up to<br />
16dB lower than ICAO chapter 4 regulations.<br />
The <strong>A350</strong> <strong>XWB</strong> will have some of the lowest CO2 emissions in the industry which also means that, at<br />
equal emissions levels, it is capable of carrying more<br />
passengers than its competitors.<br />
Market<br />
adaptability<br />
The <strong>A350</strong> <strong>XWB</strong> is designed to be efficient on very<br />
long-haul missions but also for regional operations.<br />
To reduce costs on shorter range missions, it<br />
combines reduced operating weight options with up<br />
to 40% engine derate capability.<br />
The <strong>A350</strong> <strong>XWB</strong> cabin also provides the flexibility to<br />
adapt to different markets. Its wide cross section can<br />
accommodate 7 abreast regional business class, and<br />
up to 10 abreast economy class seating.<br />
Moreover, thanks to efficient design features, the<br />
<strong>A350</strong> <strong>XWB</strong> offers operators easier re-configuration<br />
solutions. This provides market-matching flexibility,<br />
for instance swapping some rows of business class<br />
seats for more rows of economy class seats.<br />
