Airbus Corporate Jets (ACJ) has launched the TwoTwenty business jet in a new market segment the company calls 'Xtra Large Bizjet'.

This offer includes for the first time a flexible cabin catalogue, addressing the requirements of the heavy and long-range business jet categories.

The TwoTwenty is based on Airbus’ A220-100, featuring advanced materials and state-of-the-art technologies.

“We are proud to extend the ACJ product Family with the launch of the ACJ TwoTwenty. The aircraft combines intercontinental range, unmatched personal space and comfort for all passengers. This latest technology platform offers unbeatable economics and unrivalled reliability,” said Benoit Defforge, president of ACJ. “Based on its compelling market appeal, we see promising demand for this aircraft in the growing business jet market.”

While occupying the same parking space and being able to take off from the same airports as competing business jets, the TwoTwenty will offer three times more cabin space, yet with a third less operating costs benefiting from the high performance of Airbus’ latest A220 Family.

The TwoTwenty will have an increased range enabling the aircraft to fly up to 10,500km (over 12 flight hours), directly connecting city pairs like London and Los Angeles, Moscow and Jakarta, Tokyo and Dubai as well as Beijing and Melbourne, benefitting the entire A220 Programme.

Comlux, with its ACJ-approved completion centre in Indianapolis and proven experience in outfitting and upgrading VIP interiors, has been selected as exclusive partner for the outfitting of the first 15 cabins to the latest addition of the ACJ programme.

Airbus has won its first orders for the TwoTwenty, totalling six aircraft as it launches. While Comlux has revealed an order for two aircraft, four further jets were ordered by undisclosed customers.

Entry into service of the first ACJ TwoTwenty by Comlux Aviation is targeted for early 2023.
