Narrative:

Flight declared an in-flight emergency and landed uneventful at destination airport after experiencing a hydraulic G engine 1 pump lo pr ECAM while stable at cruise altitude. Pre-dispatch of our flight was normal. Maintenance had cleared 2 inbound write-ups on our aircraft; both were cosmetic cabin items and irrelevant to our event. Due to late inbound arrival of this aircraft; our flight pushed back from the gate nearly 45 minutes late. Our aircraft was deiced with type ii and type iv fluid before initial taxi. Taxi out and takeoff was uneventful. At 21 minutes into our flight (and only a few minutes into level cruise at FL360) crew received a hydraulic G engine 1 pump lo pr ECAM message. Captain remained as pilot flying (PF) while first officer remained as pilot monitoring (pm). Flight crew contacted dispatch and maintenance; and all agreed to continue to destination airport. Flight crew informed center controller of situation; and declared an emergency. While on downwind leg; crew performed the landing gear-gravity extension checklist. Approach and landing was normal on runway. Crew used idle reverse thrust on the number 2 engine as briefed; as the number 1 engine reverse thrust was inoperative due to the hydraulic malfunction. Aircraft stopped approximately 3;500 feet from the end of the runway on the centerline. Crash fire rescue equipment personnel approached the aircraft after the engines were shut down; and determined some residual hydraulic fluid was still leaking on the runway. Approximately 25 minutes after landing; the crash fire rescue equipment personnel allowed the aircraft to be towed by company tug to planned arrival gate. Passengers deplaned normally through jetbridge upon gate arrival.
