2008 sales
As of 6 October, the sales of Airbus corporate, executive and VIP aircraft in 2008 stood at 14 Airbus Corporate Jet (ACJ) Family aircraft, eight A350 XWB Prestige jetliners and one A340-500 Prestige.
ACJ Family sales
Airbus ACJ Family aircraft have surpassed the 150 total sales milestone and now fly on every continent, including Antarctica.

The Airbus Corporate Jetliner is an exceptional all-round performer, fitting into the busy environment of major airports as easily as it operates out of regional and remote airfields.

The Airbus Corporate Jetliner comes supremely well equipped for globetrotting. Its Category 3B all-weather landing system helps ensure the trip will be completed even when other business aircraft are turned away because of low visibility. Optimum routing is available from the Airbus Corporate Jetliner’s on-board satellite navigation equipment, and flights over water or across remote regions are possible with the ACJ’s approval for 180 minute ETOPS (extended-range twin-engine operations).

On the ground, the ACJ is handled just like any airliner: for airport personnel, there is no difference from the aircraft they deal with every day. Efficient turnaround times during stopovers are standard.

For movements from airfields with less developed infrastructure, the Airbus Corporate Jet is fully autonomous. Integral airstairs at the forward passenger door eliminate the need for jetways or mobile stairs, while the airliner-sized auxiliary power unit makes the aircraft independent of ground-based systems for engine starting and onboard electricity.

Not only does the ACJ’s fuselage cross-section provides the largest cabin for passengers, its underfloor cargo holds accommodate up to four times the volume of typical business jets.

The underfloor holds are accessed by large doors that open outward to avoid reducing available volume inside the hold. These doors also protect baggage during loading/unloading in bad weather, while ground crews appreciate the greater working height and a wider area of the cargo holds’ flat floor.

For long-range missions, the cargo holds can be fitted with up to six removable additional centre tanks for increased range.
