I got the fr24 notification in the school toilet that this was flying and watched a little bit of the flight before going back to class man I was happy to see the first a321XLR in the air W Iberia
My first IBERIA flight was on a DC-8 from SJU to MAD. A narrowbody across the Atlantic with a seat pitch you can now dream for!! My very first flight across the Atlantic was on an Air France 707 from Paris-Lisbon-Guadeloupe-San Juan.
Max10 is not a competitor to this. The Max10 is a short haul narrow body that will be deployed on flights between NY and Washington DC. Not sure it can even cross the country all that easily let alone the ocean. This XLR on the other hand, can perform the NY to DC flight burning less fuel than the Max10 and then fly out to Barcelona. It is almost laughable in terms of the capability gap between Airbus and Boeing.
This plane is connecting smaller citys aroung the globe. So you don't have to travel to larger citys for the flight to other smaller citys. And a narrow body plane saves tons of fuel. That makes traveling cheaper.
He says that is the first narrow body to cross the Atlantic, I wonder if he ever heard of the DC8, VC10, 707 or 757.....things we have to hear. A route thst used to be flown on a 340 now downgraded to a narrow 321...
@@octaviocampos6960 Aer Lingus, JetBlue, Air Transat and Air Portugal already fly A321LRs daily across the Atlantic. WestJet 737NGs and Maxes operating for several years too.
the A321-200neo XLR could feature a cabin configured to seat anywhere between 134 paxs - 163 paxs in a typical 2-class layout . . . able to fly Kolkata (CCU) - London (LHR) & Hyderabad (HYD) - Frankfurt-Am Main (FRA) non-stop . . .
The business seat angle means you'll be seeing everyone walking up and down the isle. Also Sean's very awkward angle to the window. I prefer to have my back to the Isle, just seams less exposed
Has he heard of La Compagnie...the French Airline? Been flying from France and Italy with the A321 for years now. Albeit there are only 76 Business Class Lie Flat Seats, its the same plane basically 8 to 9 hour flights to EWR daily from Nice, Paris or Milan.
Those who are afraid to fly longhaul on a narrowbody, why?: The only thing you are missing is the extra aisle to stretch your legs every once and a while. What I am concerned about is, when the flight takes longer than 8 hours, where the crew is gonna rest.
All kul a out that but what he is saying is wrong .. there been a plenty 757 , a321 , a318 crossing the Atlantic before.... So. And that on regular flights....
Avoid at all costs… single isle means permanent queue for bathrooms, and staff blocked from their ability to offer service throughout the flight. It is unsafe and a horrible experience.
I'm horrified at the idea of spending 7+ hours in a narrow body aircraft. Nor for safety-related concerns, but for the confort, the ability to move around and stand up (which is recommended on long haul for health reasons), lavatory availability and aircraft vibration. The A321 was designed a few decades back with completely different purposes.
We routinely fly narrow body aircrafts for 5 hours 45 minutes from Newark NJ to Las Vegas. There's only a 1 hour 15 minutes difference crossing the Atlantic
España, es socio fundador de Airbus y lo crearon, Francia, Reino Unido, Alemania y España, son estas cuatro naciones las que fabrica los aviones Airbus por lo que Iberia, tiene preferencia en la compra. Le parece, Bien?
Spain has over 3000 airbus employees many being engineers..Madrid is also where Iberia Maintenenace is hubbed helping maintain airplanes. Iberia Maintenance is a leading provider of MRO services to the IAG´s airlines, OEMs and wider industry..
What an idiot. Narrow bodies have been crossing the Atlantic since the jet age then the 707, VC-10s from the 60s and eventually the 757s from 1988. Single Aisle is also a more suitable word to use than narrow body. This guy has no interest in aviation and just shows he’s probably just studied some Business Administration degree and will look for his next move or promotion. The pilot stood next to him even she looked embarrassed.

Matter of priorities 😂😌
@ wdym? May I ask

You should be getting on with your classes, never-mind plane spotting on your phone. Education first lad then you can have a good job

Boeing still struggling to certify the MAX 10
Airbus has delivered the first A321XLR since its first flight

airbus the best plane
IBERIA Nº1 🇪🇸

He probably knows that the media will just print what he says.
And A318 of British Airways
@@RadekStar-jj1gplol with a stop in shannon
Norwegian and Icelandair also used 737s for transatlantic flights too

a very promising plane. More airlines should order it.
Como me gustaría volver a viajar con Iberia Dios los bendiga ❤👌👌

Ojalá las Bussines del resto de los aviones de Iberia como a320 a321 sean igual que la del XLR. A321. GRANDEZA ESPAÑOLA 🇪🇸
Son mejores en A350, A330. Peores en business en vuelos nacionales y europeos que son iguales a turista. Iberia, técnicamente ya no es española.

Thank you ! ..this kinda Seat would BE a No Go for me !...once flying c NZ akl nrt..Same Seat...10 hrs of discomfort n horror..never again
Pretty cool, but I think I’d still prefer flying in a widebody for long haul
awesome👏👏

TAP Air Portugal has been doing it for years already !
Nice 👌
❤Airbus❤
TAP, Aer Lingus, SATA Azores all been doing it already. Not to mention JetBlue 😮
Should have been Aer Lingus… 😢
3 minutos para esto ?
This one has the LEAP engines.

I believe that wide body handles turbulence better than narrow body
Two aisles for 300 pax, one for 160. So it’s basically the same
And space flex galleys and tiny toilets…..I feel for the poor crew having to work on them!
All kul a out that but what he is saying is wrong
.. there been a plenty 757 , a321 , a318 crossing the Atlantic before.... So. And that on regular flights....
The 757 can cross the Atlantic so it’s not the first
My million dollar question, can economy seats recline? if not then good luck to future long haul travellers, be ready for horrible experiences.
They can!
what in the boeing fan world is this comment section
Can you imagine flying 7+ hour in a narrow body airplane? That's crazy!! Jamas haria un vuelo tan largo en un avion asi!
Narrow Body less comfort for consumers and more profit for owners.

@@tochi7254 The fact that you do doesn't mean it's good. And anyways, 1h15m more can make the difference, there's got to be a boundary somewhere...
out of all airlines iberia lol why airbus why!😂
Because Aer Lingus had a pilots dispute

You could have still made your point without the insult which is absolutely unnecessary.
He is because he should know better and is paid enough to get it right first time. No time for these people.
No thanks.
