Airbus’s New Plane Could Make It Much Cheaper to Fly to Europe
Airbus’s first A321LR aircraft completed its first transatlantic test flight from Paris Le Bourget to New York City's JFK earlier this year. It is the longest flight that the highly anticipated aircraft has completed so far. (www.travelandleisure.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
I agree with El Kabong
Depends on where you sit - upfront om an International configured 57 - Its a good life, just a left turn into 8 perfect lie flat seats - Waiting on a widebody for Newark to Lisbon
? or Dublin .. no thanks!

The airlines have already said that this aircraft does not effectively replace the mission of the 757. The A321LR is a plane with no viable market to serve. If it was Airbus would have already sold a bunch of them. Lets see if Boeing gets it right with the 797/NMA. Both airplane makers seem like rudderless ships in a storm these days when it comes to making good decisions on aircraft. Boeing with the 737 MAX 10 is no better than Airbus with this aircraft.
Also how could anyone be excited about any new version of the 737 or A321. Both decent planes but 190 seats on an A321 compared to 176 on a 757. The 757 was bad enough now the A321 will be absolute torture!!!
American Airlines will probably give up on the sink on their A321NEOs and just have hand sanitizer after their fail with the bathrooms on the 737 MAX 8.

There are regular 737-10 flights across the Atlantic by SAS and Norwegian. BA A318 might have started this smaller is better trend but its capacity is very very limited. Value of 737/A321 on these routes is to secondary airports only.
Strange, as the 737-10 is not even flying yet....
Because yeah.. I want to fly 6-9 hours on a plane with the cabin the size of a 737.. No thanks.. I appreciate the less claustrophobic feel of a 777 or 767 when I commute over to .eu.
In Europe you get better service, and good prices compared to America. But you must know where to look for them
