Why the Airbus A350 is considered the ‘King of the Skies’

The aviation industry has come a long way in the past few decades, and the Airbus A350 is proof of how great modern aircraft — even passenger planes — can be.

The twin-engine widebody aircraft first rolled out in 2015 as Qatar Airways debuted its initial flight.

Since then, it has gotten the undivided attention of airlines and aviation enthusiasts alike.

The Airbus A350 is a remarkable machine

Although the Airbus A350 may seem like just about any other passenger plane, there’s a lot going on inside the jet.

You see, it houses two Rolls-Royce XWB engines, which only recently were upgraded to make the aircraft more powerful.

These engines are certainly capable of making the A350 an ideal choice for long-haul flights.

It also boasts the highest range of any commercial jet in the world at 17,960 kilometers or 9,700 nautical miles.

Because the plane is perfect for long-distance transatlantic flights, airlines love it, too.

Several big names like Singapore Airlines, Qatar Airways, and Air France have several A350s in their fleets.

As capable as the plane mechanically is, it also has several other perks up its sleeves.

The Airbus A350 is an all-rounder — with a significant focus on passenger experience.

Not your average widebody passenger airliner

It features state-of-the-art tech inside the cockpit and cabin.

The cabin upgrades inside the widebody jet easily make it one of the best in-flight cabins you can experience.

Moreover, pilots, too, have solid affection for this airliner.

Its cockpit is practically a luxurious abode for pilots, and watching the cockpit view of an Airbus A350 flying is a hypnotizing sight in itself.

If all that doesn’t seem enough, the aircraft is largely made of composite materials alongside aluminum alloys and titanium that make it super light despite its size.

With the reduced weight compared to other widebody jets like the Boeing 777, the A350 enjoys higher fuel efficiency.
