A330-200 - THE ECONOMIC POWERHOUS

A330-200 capitalizes on the proven, advanced features of A330/A340 Family, making it by far the most modern design in its class. It is ideally suited to the needs of medium-capacity markets and with the versatility to serve extended- range routes.

Quite simply, it offers a more comfortable cabin, better payload carrying capability, better range and take-off performance, and more complete family connections than any competitor.

PERFORMANCE

A330/A340 Family introduced new innovation in aircraft design. It was the first, and is the only, airliner programme designed to allow airlines to select different aircraft models to best satisfy their varied fleet development needs.

Different configurations offer better operating efficiency and development potential on different design ranges than can be achieved by a single configuration; twin-engined A330s for the lowest cost on medium- to extended- range routes, four-engined A340s for the ultimate operating flexibility on long and very long range networks. A330-200 has a maximum range of 6650nm/12300km.

The "range curves" with baggage allowance and full fuel reserves allowance is made for airways routings instead of the most direct routings and for headwinds for that particular region; it is because these winds differ from route to route that the "curves" are not in fact perfect circles.

A330-300, the original twin-engine member of A330/A340 Family, is designed to do what twins do best. Highly efficient, optimized for the medium- to extended-range market, it is the uncompromized solution to the range/cost dilemma.

With true widebody comfort, volume efficiency of this aircraft is such that, after allowance for passenger baggage, it has more space for cargo than in a 747, while offering unbeatable seat-mile costs

In A330-300 cabin, seat pitch can be adapted in units of one inch. Galleys, lavatories and stowages can be located in different numbers, groupings and locations. In-flight entertainment can be incorporated in the seats or screens mounted on partitions below the overhead stowages. These make for an almost infinite variety of cabin interiors.
