Often, the selling price will be a lot lower.

The company says it has increased the average list price by 2.6 per cent.

The new price ranges from US$72 million for the A318, the smallest member of the A320 family, to US$414 million for the A380 superjumbo, the world’s largest passenger aircraft.

It was a highly successful year for Airbus — the company won 1,619 gross orders in 2013 and delivered a record 626 aircraft to 93 customers.

In all, Airbus has sold nearly 14,000 aircraft to more than 360 customers, delivering 8,000 airplanes.
