Toulouse, France, 1 December 2025 – Following the publication of an Alert Operators Transmission (AOT) on 28 November calling for immediate precautionary action on a number of in-service A320 Family aircraft, Airbus is providing an update on the status of the deployment of these measures across the global fleet.
Out of a total number of around 6,000 aircraft potentially impacted, the vast majority have now received the necessary modifications. We are working with our airline customers to support the modification of less than 100 remaining aircraft to ensure they can be returned to service.
Airbus apologises for any challenges and delays caused to passengers and airlines by this event. The Company thanks its customers, the authorities, its employees and all relevant stakeholders involved for their support in implementing these measures, and for their understanding of Airbus’ decision to put safety above all other considerations.
