About EasyJet’s Aircraft Fleet
Easyjet has a total of 322 aircraft across the three affiliate airlines.
They most commonly fly the Airbus A320-200 and the Airbus A319-100.
The Airbus A320-200 is a narrow-body airliner developed by French airplane manufacturer Airbus. The A320 fits anywhere between 150 – 186 people per flight. The max cruise altitude for the Airbus is 41,000 feet. The Airbus can fly over 3500 miles on a single fuel load at a max airspeed of 470 knots.
The Airbus A319-100 is the A320’s little brother. It offers virtually the same performance as the A320, the only difference being that the A319 is a few feet shorter in length and fits fewer passengers than the A320.
