Airbus A321
"The Stretched Star"
The biggest and longest of the A320 family!
About the Airbus A321
The Airbus A321 is the stretched version of the A320 — longer, with more seats and more range. The newest version, the A321XLR, can fly incredibly long distances for a narrow-body jet — even crossing the Atlantic! Airlines love it because it can replace wide-body jets on thinner long-haul routes at much lower cost.
Cool Fact!
The A321XLR is a narrow-body jet that can fly across the Atlantic Ocean — imagine a single-aisle plane flying from New York to London! 🌊
Fun Facts ✈️
The A321XLR can fly 5,400 miles — enough to cross the Atlantic Ocean non-stop!
American Airlines has ordered over 200 A321XLRs for transatlantic routes.
The A321 is 23 feet longer than the standard A320.
It can carry up to 244 passengers in a high-density layout.
