This airliner fuselage like most is all cylinders and tubes with cones at either end. Main reason technically is that it is the most efficient shape for a pressurized vessel. There are other shapes possible especially in composite material and maybe when 3D printing of large structures will be mature.

Here are the parts and partial assembly.



Note : the camera I use ( Cannon ) went crazy with the flash setting and flooded the pictures with too much light before I stopped it. I still can't restore the setting and after these series of pictures, I reverted to no flash with auto setting and extra external lighting.
