The A330-200 is the medium-haul widebody that refuses to retire. Airlines in Asia and Europe still depend on it.

Fun fact

The A330 family has one of the best safety records of any widebody aircraft ever built.

Shorter fuselage than -300. Same wing. Four-wheel bogies distinguish it from 777.

The Short-Body
