I'm assuming you mean how to import .gpx flight plans into Flightgear's route manager system, because you didn't really say what the problem was. Well, just download the .gpx file and save it wherever you want on your computer. Then, in Flightgear, open the route manager and click "load flightplan". Then just click on the .gpx file and it will be saved as your flightplan.

Hope this helped,

For the A320-family, there should be something called "Load Flightplan" under the utilities section on top of your screen. Then just follow the instructions provided.

For A320family You can use SimBrief planner (https://www.simbrief.com). You can create flightplan and then on one click import into A320. Check my video :
