Airbus in the U.S.

With over 1,100 Airbus jetliners flying in the fleets of U.S. and Canadian airlines today, there is an operator in North America for nearly every model of the company’s modern, efficient product line. Overall, more than 3,000 Airbus aircraft have been ordered in North America from customers that include American Airlines, FedEx, Frontier Airlines, GECAS, Hawaiian Airlines, ILFC, jetBlue Airways, Spirit Airlines, United Airlines, UPS, US Airways and Virgin America.

For the production of its jetliners, Airbus buys more parts, components, tooling and other material from the United States than any other country. Workers in more than 40 states help build Airbus aircraft, supporting 180,000 high-quality manufacturing jobs across the U.S. This supplier network involves some of the most respected names in American aerospace, including Alcoa, Eaton, GE, Goodrich, Hamilton Sundstrand, Honeywell, Northrop Grumman, PPG, Pratt & Whitney, Rockwell Collins and Spirit Aerosystems.
