I hope not. Already Airbus is milking this plane to its limits. It's an old airframe and should be replaced with a new clean sheet design made out of composite materials. Airbus showed it's "Albatross One" concept plane with flexible folding wings 4+ years ago. But to this day the company still hasn't introduced them on the a321. I think the explanation is just GREED: they aren't innovating cz they know airlines will continue to buy this old a320 since no other competitive alternative is present in the market rn.
@George Hartfield I've flown on several United Airlines A320s and A319s. The only issue is leg room in economy which is typical. Beyond that, they're fine aircraft and I like them.
Most airlines change the seat positions to make more seats, i.e. make more *kaching* by squeezing in more passengers. This is also the reason why seats don't line up with Windows sometimes. That's just the airline trying to make 💰
Even though I LIVE across the water from Boeings final assembly line in Everett, WA, I have always been fascinated by how both Airbus and Boeing build their aircraft. Thanks Airbus for giving us these GREAT birds! But one thing I do ask, WHY IS THERE A BIG RIVALRY BETWEEN THE TWO?! I subbed.
@cruxader27 I don't know how correct the article is, but Wikipedia states 'about eight months'. That must however be from when the first nut and screw is made (to order), since eight months at assembly would require magnitudes larger production facilities. Maybe ~14 days on assembly? Also note that some items are 'long lead', i.e. they are ordered years ahead of production and in bulk before the a/c is sold. It's perhaps a slightly more complex question than you realized. :)
@Char1ie473 I don´t think that you can compare even a deep simulated A 320 on your PC with a real one. I made a flight in a big Airbus simulator from an airline which is pretty close to the original. That experience was incomparable to my PC simulation. It´s like watching Formula one on TV and driving a real F1 race. :-)
The a320 is the second most produced plane but the 737 is the first most produced plane the a320 had more than 17000 orders but b737 had more than 1500 orders a320 will be the most produced soon
i hope this plane lives for thousands of years

The A320 is a beautiful plane. I'd love to fly one of these someday!
regularflurfy even the A330
I've flown in a few. They're workhorses.

I love how these videos start with the beluga
All of this work is probaly super hard. We are lucky to be passengers.
Love the A320 family

Vietnamese is watching this awesome video.
loved the evolution of airbus logo from a globe to just a letter 'A'

Great video, I love Airbus ;-)
Great video !
How does flying a good A320 in X-Plane compare to real life?
Cool
Excellent video. Would love to see a similar construction video of an A380! Any chance in the near future?
A340 300? Idk where to find that I only found the -600 timelapse
But yea A340 no longer in production
Sehr schönes Video
can you please please please please please do an A330 I LOVE THAT PLANE THERE IS NOTHING ABSOLUTLY NOTHING BETTER THAN THE A330
Except the 777-8/9X.
@Randy Lol, i know. Wish i knew that 4 years ago
This beats the B737 next generation and the B737MAX in production
HA!!
This is assembly and not production as described - "A320 production: from start to finish - TH-cam".
Airbus A320s still exist nowadays
i mean yea most planes produced in the 70s fly nowdays
actually how long does it take for one A320 to build? i know there are thousands of orders from them..
cruxader27 It is said that Airbus produces about more than 50 A320s a month. That is more than one airplane per day.
Abhijit Kashyap that doesn’t say how long one needs to build, they don’t need just one day for one aircraft

this is MEA A320 OD-MRL (5000 MSN)
What is the music for the first part of the video called?
0:17 i mean the beluga is big but I didn’t know it was pregnant
The a320 is the second most produced plane but the 737 is the first most produced plane the a320 had more than 17000 orders but b737 had more than 1500 orders a320 will be the most produced soon
hey you forgot me
Is this the Mobile facility in the USA?
No
Toulouse
What engine use at 2:37
IAE V2500
Dumb me, I was thinking they take much more time to build a plane.
#A320Scoot #A320AirAsia #A320QatarAirways!!!
COOL. Im not stupid so im not 1st =D
