There are static ports on each side of the vertical fin that provide additional input to the FMC to suppress the effects of turbulence. Gust suppression is automatic with no input by the flight crew when the flight controls are in normal flight control laws mode.

The Airbus A350 is equipped with some of the most advanced "active load alleviation" technology in the world to mitigate the effects of turbulence. Rather than having a single "anti-turbulence" button, the A350’s fly-by-wire system uses high-speed sensors to detect atmospheric gusts in milliseconds. The aircraft’s computers then automatically adjust the flaps, ailerons, and spoilers to counteract the vertical movement, effectively "shrugging off" the bumps before they reach the passengers. Furthermore, the A350 features a highly flexible wing made of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic, which can bend and absorb energy better than traditional aluminum wings. While it doesn't eliminate all movement—as no plane can completely defy physics—passengers in 2026 often report that the A350 feels significantly more "stable" and "fluid" than older aircraft. This technology not only improves passenger comfort but also reduces the structural fatigue on the airframe over time.
