Airbus A321XLR Long-Range Narrowbody Family

The Airbus A321XLR is a long-range narrowbody derivative of the A320neo family, developed with additional fuel capacity for economically viable longer routes. Its first aircraft flew in June 2022 and the CFM-powered variant received EASA type certification in July 2024, establishing a distinct certified model boundary while retaining A320/A321 commonality.
