Airbus plans to increase production of its A320 family of airliners as the company bets on strong demand for its smaller planes to take the sting out of costly delays to its A380 superjumbo jet. An Airbus spokesman, Justin Dubon, confirmed the plans, reported by The Wall Street Journal. The company, based in Toulouse, would produce 32 of the single-aisle planes each month starting in January, instead of the 30 produced currently. Production will increase further, to 34 planes a month in March 2008 and to 36 by December that year. Before the increase was decided, the first delivery windows available to new customers were in 2010, Mr. Dubon said. Faster production will open up new slots well before that date.
