I’m impressed by how versatile the A321XLR is. It seems perfect for both short and long-haul routes.

[@FLIGAVIA]

True

[@chapudelosbarrios]

I would say that the A321 XLR gives larger capacities to the narrow body segment without designing a new aircraft but modifying -in a very smart manner- an existing model. This is the cheapest way for increasing the service that the company offer ( = company business).

The extended range of the A321XLR is a game-changer for long-haul flights. Well done, Airbus!

[@sadasatyamvada]

Boeing got too greedy with 737, choosing to tweak the airplane too much, just to avoid the investment into a new clean sheet design. It ended up losing more money in 737 Max and damaged the reputation almost irreparably. If they had taken up a clean sheet design for a narrow body a decade back, today they would not have to cede the 757 market to Airbus. But Boeing will bounce back. Hopefully with the 777x and also a clean sheet narrow body design soon.

[@FLIGAVIA]

Yes, hope 777X will do well

[@smoketinytom]

Wonder if they're looking at making a Freighter version of this. Seems like it would be handy for the 757F replacements when Logistic Companies are looking for new aircraft. Though the low cost airlines are most interesting how they'd use it, either to let them fly out with full passengers and then fly back without refuelling abroad or utilising the range to expand their network. And I deffo will consider one of these transatlantic if I'm in a Business seat.

[@MirandaBoni]

The industry reactions to the A321XLR show that Airbus is setting new standards for extended-range, single-aisle aircraft.

[@FLIGAVIA]

true

[@Dirk-van-den-Berg]

I wonder about two things. The first longhaul-narrowbody has a main cost-advantage, it needs less cabincrew than a widebody. How is an entire crew of a narrowbody going to serve for a transoceanic flight of, let's say, 9 to 11 hours? Second thing: after 8 hours, pilots have a mandatory restperiod. Does the XLR provide a restingarea? Seems unlikely. In a next video, can you tell us about that?

[@FLIGAVIA]

sure, please wait for our next videos

[@rtbrtb_dutchy4183]

I flew on JetBlue from Amsterdam to JFK. They did it with 2 pilots, but there was an extra business class seat with heavy curtains around it for crew. Why would serving a transoceanic flight be different to serve on with a narrow body versus wide body? They are not handling 350 passengers.

While I expect the 321XLR to be a big financial success, kill off the old 757s and create some brand new niches I reckon expecting it to kill off Boeing is way, way exaggerated. As you point out Boeing has attempted to kill itself off with its own mistakes, but it has not succeeded - manufacturers who have years-long wait lists across their product range are not about to die off. Plus if all else fails Boeing can turn to Uncle Sam in the form of padded military and space contracts - for the US the reality is that Boeing is much too big to fail.

[@FLIGAVIA]

Thanks for sharing!

[@carl32us]

Pls consider the psychological factor for the passengers to fly long range. Boeing had some B737 NG`s as Business Class Flights form Europe to the USA and it was never profitable !! Reason, the passengers preferred C-Class in a wide body much more. I only can imagine, will be suitable to fly more point to point destinations, where a low passenger demand will be. But, like the ultra long range flights, the passengers are not very motivated to sit 15h and more in a y-class configuration. During my active time, I never saw a seat load factor of more then 69.9% for the A340-500. My successor says very much the same now, even with the introduction of the A350-1000 long ranger. It is a bit higher, but did not reach the target of 94% yet. Maybe when they lower the prices for the tickets, but then it will not bear the costs anyway. I see this airplane only a new opportunity for charter operators, with no cargo and only charter tourism segments.

If Airlines have short or medium distance destinations with a high difference in fuel cost, they might save money filling up at the cheaper airport.

Boeing was an engineers' company. Mc Donnell-Douglas was an accountants' company. The Merger of both companies in 1997 allowed the beans' counters to takeover the management reins. Since then, the only thing that matter was "Shareholders' Value". As the result, Boeing fucked up. This didn't happen out of the blue, the FAA allowed it. How could the FAA allowed Boeing and its suppliers to use their own personnel to oversight their work. you cannot have a cake and eat it. The engineers need to come back to the helm. It will take time but Boeing will survive as they are too big to fail. This is a cautionary tale for the apostles of the short term "Shareholder's value", unfortunately there are others in many industries such as Food, Pharmaceutical, etc... That said, Airbus, an engineering company, has done a great job. The A321 is a beautiful plane.

[@sebastientoussaint5461]

Boeing made a series of big mistake while they were fighting Bombardier with the CS series. Maybe they were hopping Bombardier go down under and the program halted, but as soon as Bombardier landed the first huge order with Delta, all hell break loose with Boeing file lawsuits. Meanwhile Boeing had an aging popular 737 that they kept stretching to its limit instead of developing a replacement to be in line with the 787. To make matters worse, they didn’t have plans for a new 757. But, the biggest mistake was the companies commitment to output as much 737 possible which required the FAA to let Boeing self controlled, that led to quality issues and failures. In the meantime, Airbus came to the rescue of Bombardier and the rest is history. Boeing CEO at the time Denis Mullenburg focus was pleasing wallstreet

[@PaulODonnell-t9l]

That's right but only if there is sufficient demand on the planned routes which is the point of narrow bodied flights

[@rtbrtb_dutchy4183]

Not true. The 777 runs for about $18000 per hour and the XLR about $8000 per hour. You can fly 2 for the same cost basically. But the big win is that you don’t have to sell a lot of seats to be profitable. Also, you can connect two smaller airports. Example: you live in Pittsburgh and need to go to London. For the 777, you fly first on a 737 or 320 to JFK, switch to the 777, fly to Heathrow. The A321XLR can go straight from Pittsburgh to Stansted airport. (Stansted is a less busy airport in London). No stop in JFK.

Boeing will not die - but it will need to offer a new design to compete, and that is a LONG way off. But you're wrong to say cargo space isn't impacted in the XLR - it very much does compared to the base A321 and Max10. Lastly, the XLR does offer advantages over 757 in that it's lighter and more fuel efficient, but not in range and cargo space...
