Airbus is widely known for its commercial airplanes, such as the A320 and A380 series. It also has a segment for corporate jets, known as Airbus Corporate Jets (ACJ), which competes with Boeing Business Jets. Leveraging its expertise, Airbus has developed some of the world's largest private jets. Currently, Airbus produces the ACJ TwoTwenty, ACJneo, ACJ330neo, and ACJ350 corporate jets. One older variant is the ACJ340, based on the commercial A340 wide-body jet.
The ACJ340 belongs to the A340 family, recognized for long-range commercial aircraft. The ACJ version utilizes the design's space and range, transforming it into a luxurious private jet. The ACJ340 can accommodate different cabin layouts, tailored for its owners' preferences, with configurations for up to 100 passengers, suitable for corporate or VIP travel.
A significant attraction of the ACJ family, including the ACJ340, is the size. Compared to competitors, ACJ aircraft offer larger interiors and exteriors. The ACJ340 shares dimensions with the commercial A340, featuring a wingspan of 208 ft 2 in, a length of 222 ft 10 in, and a height of 57 ft 6 in. The fuselage is 18 ft 6 in wide, and it has a wheelbase of 90 ft 6 in.
