widebodies

Twin-aisle passenger planes

Widebodies are large commercial aircraft with two aisles in the passenger cabin, allowing passengers to move past each other more easily than in single-aisle planes.

Boeing 747s, 777s, and Airbus A380s are widebodies.

The term also refers informally to overweight people, though this use is less common and can be offensive.
