An Airbus ACJTwoTwenty and its interior.
  • Airbus displayed one of its ACJTwoTwenty jets at a conference in Geneva.
  • The $100 million private-jet version of its A220 airliner had several sections.
  • That included an entertainment area, meeting room, and large bathroom at the aft.

The Airbus A220 has a unique history. The firm's smallest airliner started life as the Bombardier CSeries before financial difficulties led to its acquisition by the European planemaker.

It utilizes fly-by-wire technology, which is key in Airbus' history. In the 1980s, the A320 became the second commercial jet after Concorde to use it — helping propel the manufacturer to compete with Boeing.
