Your bucket list may have a new activity or two added to it after you click through all of these astounding Airbus innovations. Airbus is French, and the chief competitor to American airline manufacturer Boeing. Normally, those two things would make my blood boil, but after seeing all of the lavish and eco-friendly planes that bear the Airbus name, I think I can deal.
If you're looking to see what the high life looks like 36,000 feet up, look no further. Almost all of these Airbuses are pimped to max. In-flight showers, telephone calls, bars, you name it, and one of these planes probably has it. Of course, these astounding Airbus innovations aren't all about luxury. A handful of these planes are years ahead of their time, flying on bio-fuels or hydrogen fuel-cells. Luxurious and eco-friendly, what's not to love?
