About the Airbus A321 Neo

The Airbus A321neo is a single-aisle airliner created by Airbus. The A321neo (neo being an acronym for "new engine option") is developed from the Airbus A321 and Airbus A320neo family. It is the longest stretched fuselage of Airbus's A320 series, and the newest version of the A321, with the original A321ceo entering service in 1994 with Lufthansa.It typically seats 180 to 220 passengers in a two-class configuration, with up to 244 passengers in a high-density arrangement.
The A321neo was announced by Airbus in December 2010, as an improvement and replacement to the A321ceo.[4] Fitted with new engines and sharklets as standard, the A321neo has the longest fuselage of any Airbus narrow-body airliner of commercial use. Fitted with CFM International LEAP-1A or Pratt & Whitney PW1100G-JM engines, Airbus advertises a 20% increase in fuel efficiency per passenger, with 500 nautical miles (930 km; 580 mi) more range, or 2 tonnes (4,400 lb) more of payload. Boeing introduced a new generation of their competing narrowbody family 737 MAX one year after the introduction of the A321neo.

The A321neo began production in 2016, with final assembly taking place in Hamburg, Germany.[6] It entered service with Virgin America on 31 May 2017, taking its first commercial flight. As of September 2024, a total of 6,721 A321neo aircraft had been ordered by 85 disclosed customers, of which 1,479 aircraft had been delivered.
