Airbus to take A320 rate to 60 with new Hamburg line
Airbus is to raise its monthly production rate of A320-family aircraft to 60 jets in mid-2019, by opening a new line at Hamburg.

Airbus says it has carried out “thorough” studies on whether the chain and its assembly sites – which include the new plant at Mobile in Alabama – can handle the rate increase.
