Airbus announced on 14 July 2014 that they were commencing the project for the A330neo. This will come out in two variants, the A330 800neo and the A330 900neo. The first flight is expected in mid 2016 with the first aircraft entering service in late 2017. See the specs here or a fuller story here.

Newer planes The WOW air fleet consists of the Airbus A320, A321, and A330 aircraft. The A320 is the choice of many of the world's leading airlines and a perfect fit for WOW air's short-haul flights between Europe and Iceland.
For WOW air's flights to and from North America, the airline operates the Airbus A321, the largest member of the Airbus A320 family. With a stretched fuselage, the A321 allows for wider passenger seats and more legroom, which is key for passenger comfort. The Airbus A321 also offers a step change in fuel efficiency and its advanced technology allows for lower maintenance cost.
WOW air's California routes are serviced by the wide-body Airbus A330 aircraft, which is the largest aircraft operated by an Icelandic carrier with seats for up to 350 passengers. In 2018, three brand new A321 aircraft were added to the WOW air fleet, including an A321neo. Neo, meaning 'new engine option', is one of the most cost-effective, medium-range widebody aircraft on the market. The fleet of the future We are proud to operate one of the youngest fleets in the world with the lowest emission. Planes are the cars of the sky and the same rule applies; newer planes burn less fuel which is better for the environment and your wallet. They are also more comfortable and oh so quiet. We look forward to seeing you on board.
There are 3 models of the Airbus A330-200 included in this package- the A330-203 (General Electric CF6-80E1 Engines), the A330-223 (Pratt and Whitney PW4000 Engines) and the A330-243 (Rolls Royce Trent 772B-60 Engines). In the future, we may also develop the A330-204, the A330-200F and possibly a separate A330-300 series. The Older A330-200 from theOmegaHangar is no longer supported, you're recommended to use this version.
The FlightDeck and systems have been ported from the new Airbus A320neo which is also developed by theOmegaHangar. NOTE- This aircraft doesn't have a license defined yet but we can define it as required. A couple of textures for the fuselage body has been taken from the Project OpenSky Airbus A330 version2 for Microsoft Flight Simulator and permission to release it under GPL is still pending. Pilot's Operating Handbook (PoH) and Flight Manuals are available for the Airbus A330-200 (only for simulation purposes) at and FlightGear A330-200 specific tutorials and checklists will be available in the FlightGear wiki soon. The Hangar would like to thank Polly, Bicyus (Jon A. Ortundo), Hooray and Awexome for their help on the new Airbus Systems. I'd like to thank ot-666 (Oliver) for his awesome Gear mod and catering vehicles which has been implemented in the A330s!
And finally, I'd like to thank Leon Vogel for his amazing work with the new Engine sounds! For any queries, contact [email protected].
