The Airbus ACJ TwoTwenty private jet exists solely for one reason — to be above the rest when it comes to flying with luxury.
As far as luxury jets go, most are made-to-order, but this one costs so much that only two have been delivered – so far.
Although Airbus plans to create about 17 of these, finding customers who can shell out $80 million can be a task.
So far, we only know what the first one looked like, but this one is the hotly-anticipated second, and it’s already received some beefy upgrades.

Second Airbus ACJ TwoTwenty is all about luxury
First things first, what makes the Airbus ACJ TwoTwenty special is that it isn’t your ‘everyday’ private jet.
The single-aisle Airbus A220 was first transformed so it could become a part of the Airbus Corporate Jets (ACJ) lineup.
Further, the company partnered with chartering firm, Comlux, which was in charge of designing the interiors.
It’s safe to say that Comlux left no stone unturned because when you step inside any of the ACJ TwoTwenty units, it has a unique look and feel.
The first Airbus ACJ TwoTwenty was designed with subtlety in mind, but it also came with a touch of ‘fun.’
Although the interior had a minimalist theme, its overhead lights gave it a nightclub-like vibe.
The new one, however, stood out.
Both companies finished the second jet’s production back in February 2024, and not many have had the chance to experience it since then.
Luxury doesn’t always glitter
Lucky for enthusiasts, Comlux has a bunch of photos showcasing the interior.
“This latest one has slightly more corporate styling, but uses 70 percent of the design of the first one,” Comlux CEO, Richard Gaona, said.
What that means is the design team doubled down on its subtlety, but then again, it’s a corporate business jet in the end.
It often takes more than a year for Comlux to design each jet, that might be because it comes in 77 design configurations.
It’s all up to the client on how they want it, and then there are the re-do tasks — you get the point.
Case in point, luxury doesn’t always have to be bright and shiny, but something simple and functional can also come at great costs.
This Airbus ACJ TwoTwenty is proof of that.
