Airbus To Produce A321s in Toulouse from 2022
The new digitally enabled narrowbody final assembly line will replace the current A380 facility.

Airbus on Tuesday said it will start producing the largest variant of its narrowbody family in Toulouse, ending months of speculation about how the European airframer would use the ‘Lagardère’ hall that now assembles the A380s and whose production will stop at the end of 2021. The decision to install an A321 final assembly line (FAL) in Toulouse also dashes the hopes of Airbus’s German division to keep the European production capabilities of the A321 under its wings at Hamburg.
