## Description

Hamburg-Finkenwerder (IATA: XFW, ICAO: EDHI) is a factory airfield, not a public airport: it belongs solely to Airbus and exists to serve the company's A320neo final assembly. Four assembly lines here build roughly half of all A320-family deliveries — around 30 aircraft a month, now including the long-range A321XLR. Daily movements mix delivery and test flights with Beluga and Beluga XL transports bringing in fuselage sections and wings from Saint-Nazaire, Broughton and other plants. About 15,000 Airbus staff work at Finkenwerder, part of up to 18,000 across the Hamburg-area sites. No third-party freight is handled; for commercial air cargo, Hamburg Airport (HAM) and its dedicated cargo centre are the relevant gateway.
