Narrow-body aircraft
The ACJ family is based on the successful A320 family of aircraft, beginning with the A319CJ. Today any version of the A320 is available as a corporate jet with a 180-minute ETOPS rating. Changes over the passenger versions include an increase in service ceiling to 41,000 ft (12,000 m) and the use of a variable number of removable additional fuel tanks.

ACJ318
The ACJ318 offered a range of 4,200 nmi or 7,800 km. The smallest of the ACJ family, based on the passenger A318, was offered in passenger configurations between 14 and 18 passengers.

ACJ319
The ACJ319 offered a range of 6,000 nmi or 11,100 km.
This model is the corporate jet version of the A319. It incorporates removable extra fuel tanks which are installed in the cargo compartment, and an increased service ceiling of 12,000 m (39,000 ft). Upon resale the aircraft can be reconfigured as a standard A319 by removing its extra tanks, thus maximizing its resale value. Certificated by both the European JAA and American FAA, the A319LR and ACJ are the only business jets approved for public transport on both sides of the Atlantic. In 2018, its unit cost was $105M.The aircraft seats between 19 and 50 passengers but may be outfitted by the customers into any configuration. DC Aviation, UB Group, and Reliance Industries are among its users. The A319CJ competes with the Boeing BBJ1, Gulfstream G550, and Bombardier Global Express. Because of its wider fuselage diameter, it offers a roomier interior than its competitors. It is powered by the same engine types as the A320, either the CFM International CFM56-5 or the V2527.
The A319CJ was used by the Escadron de transport, d'entrainement et de calibration which is in charge of transportation for France's government officials, and was also ordered by the Flugbereitschaft of the Luftwaffe for the transport of German government officials. Since 2003, an ACJ is a presidential aircraft of Armenia, Brazil, Czech Republic, Italy, Malaysia, Slovakia, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine and Venezuela.

ACJ320
The ACJ320 offered a range of 4,300 nmi or 7,800 km.
The A320 Prestige is offered as a variant for passengers who want more interior space than the A319 offers. It has a passenger capacity of 30, with two removable fuel tanks. In 2018, its unit cost was $115M.

ACJ321
The A321 is the largest narrow-body corporate jet with a full passenger range of 4,200 nmi (7,800 km).

ACJ319neo/ACJ320neo
Two A320neo family variants are offered: the ACJ319neo, carrying eight passengers up to 6,750 nmi (12,500 km), and the ACJ320neo, carrying 25 up to 6,000 nmi (11,000 km).
The CFM LEAP or Pratt & Whitney PW1000G lower fuel-burn provides additional range along with lower engine noise while the cabin altitude does not exceed 6,400 ft (2,000 m).
To increase its fuel capacity, the ACJ319neo is offered with up to five additional centre tanks (ACT).The ACJ320neo first flight was on 16 November 2018, starting a short test programme for the extra fuel tanks and greater cabin pressurisation. It was first delivered to Acropolis Aviation on 16 January 2019. On 25 April 2019, the ACJ319neo completed its first flight, before a short test campaign and delivery to German K5 Aviation, outfitted with five ACTs. The CFM Leap-powered ACJ319neo was certified by the EASA on 9 July. In 2023, the equipped price of the ACJ319neo was $107.5M, and $117M for the ACJ320neo.

ACJ321LR
Long-range neo variant. The ACJ321LR has a range of 8,175 nmi (15,140 km) which is the longest range of any narrowbody plane.

ACJ TwoTwenty

To increase its range the ACJ Two twenty is offered with up to five removable auxiliary centre tanks (ACT).Airbus expects to launch the ACJ TwoTwenty in the first quarter of 2023. The ACJ TwoTwenty made its first flight on 14 December 2021, before delivery to Comlux to be outfitted with a VIP cabin in Indianapolis. In 2022, its equipped price was $80M.

Specifications
Wide-body aircraft
The VIP widebodies are based on the A330/A340/A350/A380 aircraft. Additional fuel tanks extend the range, with the greatest increase for the A330 Prestige.

ACJ330-200
The A330-200 Prestige offers space for 60 passengers with a range of 8,300 nmi (15,400 km).

ACJ330neo

ACJ340-300
Based on Airbus' first four engine design, the ETOPS immune A340-300 Prestige offers a 7,700 nmi (14,300 km) range for 75 passengers. It is powered by four CFM56-5C4/P engines, each rated at 151 kN (34,000 lbf) thrust.

ACJ340-500
The ACJ340-500 is a longer-range complement to the A340-300 Prestige with a 10,000 nmi (19,000 km) range as a result of having a higher fuel capacity and an updated wing with increased span and area. It carries 75 passengers and can link almost any imaginable city pair on the globe. It is powered by four Rolls-Royce Trent 556 engines, each rated at 249 kN (56,000 lbf).

ACJ340-600
The ACJ340-600 is a version of the A340-600 with range increased to 8,500 nmi (15,700 km).

ACJ350
The A330 and A340 successor A350 XWB is also offered as the ACJ350 corporate jet by Airbus Corporate Jets, offering a 10,800 nmi (20,000 km) range for 25 passengers for the -900 derivative and 270 square metres (2,900 sq ft) of cabin space. This range is the distance between two antipodes, allowing connection with any suitable airport.

ACJ380-800
One executive variant of the Airbus A380 was ordered in 2012, with two full decks and a third deck in the cargo compartment, but the aircraft was sold as a regular aircraft before modifications were made. Range was to be increased to 8,900 nmi (16,500 km). The undelivered plane, ordered by Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, was to be called "Prestige". The Guardian reported the plane was sold amid disputes between Forbes and Talal relating to the size of his fortune and his efforts to affect his ranking on the Forbes billionaires list.As of May 2018, plans to retrofit one of the first A380s to be retired from service with Singapore Airlines as a business jet were reported to be "at a very advanced stage". Refitting a retired A380 would cost less than buying a new A330 or Boeing 777 business jet.
