Carrying outsized cargo quickly and efficiently

Beluga combines outside outsized cargo-carrying capability with the jet speed and efficiency of Airbus’s A300-600 airliner.
It enables short transport times for just-in-time production, and the large main cargo deck minimizes the need for payload breakdown, crating and packaging.
The semi-automated main deck cargo loading system ensures easy and efficient handling of payloads, controlled by the trained crews of Airbus Transport International – which operates the five-aircraft Beluga fleet.
