Airbus is cutting costs on its A380 superjumbo partly by redeploying some of its overheads to the expanding A320 programme, Chief Operating Officer Tom Williams said on Monday.
For example, a fourth assembly line for the narrowbody A320neo, due to be created in Hamburg, will use a building previously used for the A380, he told an annual media briefing.
Airbus is urgently seeking to reduce the A380's costs to maintain a recently achieved breakeven level, as weak sales put pressure on deliveries of the world's largest airliner.
