    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.

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

    • @XWXW-lk4jf

      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...

    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

    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.

    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.

  • @Alex_BF

    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.

    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.
