Even if the home-turf showcase of the Paris air show had not joined the long list of exhibition casualties, Airbus might have struggled to scrape together sufficient material around which to build the sort of upbeat media event schedule to which it has become accustomed.
Over the year since March 2020, the point at which the pandemic started to throttle the global air transport system, Airbus took orders for just 66 aircraft – only three of which were widebodies: two of them A330s for military tanker conversion.

Airbus has given a further sign of its confidence in single-aisle recovery, by resuming work on an additional assembly line for A321neo twinjets.
The airframer had unveiled plans for the modernised Toulouse line in January 2020, just weeks before the pandemic crisis forced it to slash production rates and shelve the work.
Airbus had already signalled that A320neo-family output would start to ramp up in the third and fourth quarters.
It says it sees a “potential return” to pre-crisis production rates for single-aisle aircraft between 2023 and 2025.
“With market recovery in sight…Airbus is resuming its activities for the [assembly line] project,” it states.

Already a luxury of debatable value to many operators before the crisis, the A380 appears even less well-suited to a market featuring depressed travel demand and a focus on cargo
The Airbus A380’s fall from favour among its limited group of operators has been unceremonious, to say the least.
Already considered on borrowed time at many airlines before the global pandemic devastated international air travel markets, the double-decker’s demise has only been accelerated by events over the past 12 months.
Granted, dozens of Boeing 747s are similarly heading for retirement sooner than expected, but none of those departing -400s could be described as young. In contrast, the superjumbo’s exit is supercharged: the A380’s exodus from airline fleets is being discussed less than 15 years after its first commercial flight, with many examples barely reaching double figures in terms of age.
