Airliner

An airliner is a type of airplane for transporting passengers and air cargo. Such aircraft are most often operated by airlines. The modern and most common variant of the airliner is a jet powered aircraft with a long, tube-shaped fuselage.

The largest of them are wide-body jets which are also called twin-aisle because they generally have two separate aisles running from the front to the back of the passenger cabin.
These are usually used for long-haul flights between airline hubs and major cities.
A smaller, more common class of airliners is the narrow-body or single-aisle.
