Family Relatinship and specification:

The Airbus A318 is the smallest member of the Airbus A320 family, a family of short- to medium-range, narrow-body, commercial passenger jet airliners manufactured by Airbus Industrie. The A318 carries up to 132 passengers and has a maximum range of 3,100 nmi (5,700 km; 3,600 mi).Final assembly of the aircraft takes place in Toulouse, France.
As the smallest A320 Family member, the A318’s fuselage  is 2.39 metres shorter than the A319.  Takeoff weight choices of up to 66 metric tonnes provide airlines with greater operating flexibility and higher loads in operating the A318, with a maximum flight range of 2,800 km.
Airlines enjoy the benefits of Airbus technology, including one of the newest wing designs in its size category and the application of advanced materials in the airframe – providing more efficient operations and lower fuel consumption.


Cabin Comfort:

Continuing its philosophy to provide the most comfortable in-flight experience for passengers, Airbus is now offering Extra Wide Seats on its industry-leading A320 Family jetliners – providing adequate space for those who need it, while giving airline operators a new method to generate additional revenue.
Airlines and passengers both benefit from the A318’s wide cabin, which ensures a high level of comfort and provides large overhead bins for carry-on luggage.
A318 has large passenger and service doors at both the front and rear of the aircraft, allowing galley servicing and cabin cleaning to be carried out simultaneously. 

INTELLIGENT DESIGn:

The advanced systems designed into the A318 begin with Airbus’ fly-by-wire flight controls and a state-of-the-art cockpit, which is shared with all of the other A320 Family aircraft.  
This enables A318 pilots to fly any other A320 Family jetliner 
Also incorporated in the A318 is Airbus’ digital cabin management system, which controls the operating of cabin lighting, pre-recorded messages, emergency evacuation signalling and other cabin-related tasks.



“STEEP APPROACH” CAPABILITY:
Airbus’ A318 is the largest commercial aircraft certified to land at steeper than usual gradients-translating to significant cost and time savings for business travellers.
 These aircraft are equipped for premium service with seats that convert into full lie-flat beds, along with OnAir connectivity for passengers.
