What's the method of subsidy there? Contributing to Airbus shares?

Commercial aviation fuel is tax exempt in the EU, I would already count that as a subsidy (yes, I count not taxing something that's normally taxed as a subsidy, even if it isn't done by directly paying out money).
Subsidising airports and fuel, presumably.
