Airbus Corporate Jet Centre builds reputation for quality with 3rd ACJ Family delivery

Airbus Corporate Jet Centre (ACJC) has successfully completed its third VIP cabin for an Airbus ACJ Family aircraft, building on its reputation as a quality outfitter at the upper end of the business jet market.

The Airbus ACJ cabin, which is for a private customer, has an elegant arrangement of VIP features, including a lounge, rest area and bathroom. It seats just over 30 VIPs, guests and support staff, capitalizing on the ability of the Airbus A319 ACJ to carry larger groups than traditional business jets.

Designed for the customer by Studio E/motions, the cabin makes full use of the extra space afforded by the Airbus ACJ's wide and tall cabin.

The Airbus ACJ cabin outfitted by ACJC features electrically operated seats and tables, new touch-screen technology, and advanced passenger entertainment and communications – including satellite communications, Audio & Video On Demand and Wifi.

Other equipment on board includes a tail-mounted camera that passengers can use to keep track of their flight, the latest mood-lighting and an anti-intrusion system to ensure security when the aircraft is parked on the ground.

This Airbus ACJ will be operated on behalf of the customer by Comlux The Aviation Group.

ACJC has now booked a total of ten contracts for cabin-outfitting, from customers in Asia, Europe and the Middle East, the latest of which calls for a delivery in 2011.

It attributes its success to a strong technical background, a highly skilled workforce that had previously outfitted more than a dozen VIP cabins before its three latest ones, and access to upgraded facilities at the Toulouse site of parent company Airbus.
