Airbus delivered 793 commercial aircraft in 2025, a 4% increase from 766 in 2024, but monthly rates fell short of expectations throughout the year. The European manufacturer targeted 820 deliveries, yet persistent supply chain issues limited output, with an average of about 66 aircraft per month.
Early 2025 data highlighted the slowdown. In April, Forecast International estimated 59 deliveries, down from 71 in March, comprising 54 narrowbodies—including two A319neos, 18 A320neos, and 28 A321neos—and five widebodies, plus one A220-100 and five A220-300s. June saw 63 aircraft handed over: 12 A220s, 43 A320neo family, three A330s, and five A350s. By June 30, cumulative deliveries reached 306, averaging 51 monthly.
Supply constraints capped A350 production at six per month, below prior plans for 10 by 2026. A320neo family deliveries stayed under the 50-per-month target, despite aims to reach 75 by 2027. A220 output advanced toward 14 monthly by 2026, with June deliveries drawing from inventory.
Airbus reported deliveries to 91 customers, registering 1,000 gross orders (889 net) from 57 customers: 49 A220s, 656 A320s, 100 A330neos, two A330 MRTTs, and 193 A350s. The order backlog hit a record 8,754 aircraft, with widebodies at 1,124. Globally, 2025 saw 1,411 commercial deliveries, up 25% from 2024, led by single-aisles at 1,165 and twin-aisles at 246.
