With the A380, the sky is yours. It’s the quietest,
most spacious cabin in the sky. And with the widest
seats and aisles, even in economy, it’s no wonder
passengers opt for the comfort of the A380 when
given the choice.That means higher market share,
higher load factors and higher revenues.

Our body of work is large. And now, extra wide.
At Spirit, we’re proud to do our part by designing and building advanced, lightweight
components that will help the Airbus A350 XWB fulfill its amazing promise. We’re fabricating
composite panels for the center fuselage frame section at our new facility built specifically
for this partnership. We’re also supplying the front wing spar and fixed leading edge to
help create the lift that will take this cutting-edge aircraft far. And, not to mention, wide.
