Accommodation

Flightcrew of 2 and 266 passengers in typical seating configuration, up to 298 in single class configuration.

Notes

Long range wide-body airliner. In service since 1994, developed on the basis of the A-300B4. Offers the same engines as the shorter A-310 suited for mid range operations. With both powerplants, the A300-600 and A310 are fully certified for up to 180 minutes extended-range twin-engine operations (ETOPS), which permits their use on routes over water and across remote regions of the globe. Total of 561 were built (together with the A30B) and 205 remain in operation (March 2018).
