Boeing customer codes

Main article: List of Boeing customer codes

Boeing customer codes are used to identify the operator for which an aircraft was first ordered by. To use a 747-400 as an example, the codes follow the format 747-4XX, i.e. 747-422 (United Airlines) or 747-436 (British Airways).

Airbus does not follow this practice, an A340-642 denotes a model 600 (6), Rolls-Royce engines (4) and second version of that series (2).
