A330400ER

The A330-400ER is a variant of the Airbus A330 family, a wide-body commercial aircraft designed for long-haul routes. Developed by Airbus, the A330-400ER emphasizes extended range capabilities and operational efficiency, making it suitable for airlines seeking to connect city pairs with high passenger demand.

The aircraft features a typical seating capacity of approximately 250 to 290 passengers in a two-class configuration, with a range of about 7,200 nautical miles (13,334 kilometers). This extended range is achieved through modifications such as increased fuel capacity and aerodynamic improvements, allowing airlines to operate non-stop flights on transcontinental and intercontinental routes.

Powered by Rolls-Royce Trent 7000 engines (or in some cases General Electric GEnx engines), the A330-400ER offers a combination of fuel efficiency, reliability, and lower operating costs. Its design incorporates Airbus’s latest aerodynamic enhancements, including new winglets, which contribute to performance improvements and include advanced materials to reduce weight.

The aircraft's fuselage length is slightly longer than earlier A330 variants, providing additional passenger capacity and cargo space. Its systems are equipped with modern avionics and fly-by-wire controls, aligning with Airbus’s focus on safety and operational automation.

The A330-400ER entered service in 2016 and is used by several major airlines worldwide. Its blend of versatility, efficiency, and range makes it a popular choice for carriers operating long-haul services with relatively high passenger volumes. As part of Airbus's broader strategy, the A330-400ER complements other models within the A330 family, offering operators a flexible platform for international routes.
