A350 XWB:
One complete
market matching
family
The A350 XWB has known one of the most successful
commercial launches in the aircraft industry, with a
wide customer base around the world: from the US to
Middle-East, from Europe to Asia.
This success reflects the close fit between the A350 XWB
and the needs expressed by the market:
• 25% step reduction in seat-mile costs
• 25% lower CO2
emissions
• Wide cabin for enhanced comfort and efficiency

Wide fuselage
for more efficiency
and comfort
The brand new cross section of the A350 XWB
provides passengers with high levels of comfort.
The extra widebody fuselage offers the
advantage of being able to accommodate
economy class passengers at 8, 9 or even 10
abreast.
Those generous dimensions also provide
additionnal space for optimized integration
of innovative premium class solutions.
The A350 XWB cabin design, with its smooth
curves, flowing lines, innovative lighting and
its wide windows helps create a pleasant and
soothing atmosphere.
The A350 XWB also increases passengers
well-being with its low cabin altitude (6,000ft),
advanced air filtering and efficient air &
temperature management.
New wing
A composite wing, optimized for M0.85 cruise
speed, with state-of-the art aerodynamics and
advanced low-speed controls.
Step change
in profitability
Designed to maximize fuel efficiency and to
reduce maintenance costs, the A350 XWB is a
step ahead of new generation competitors and
a generation beyond in-service aircraft, offering
25% lower seat-mile costs.
In addition, the A350 XWB also offers greater
capacity for more revenue potential.

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