A321ceo Series : The A321 is the largest fuselage member of Airbus’ A320 family with seats arranged on a single aisle permitting up to 6-abreast seating in a cabin below 4 meters (13 ft) of width. This aircraft shares the same fly-by-wire configuration as other aircraft in the A320 class, using the same flight controls and cabin management systems. This consistency makes life easier for pilots and cabin crew and allows them to focus on looking after passengers. Cockpit commonality also reduces training and maintenance costs while maximizing parts interoperability. The Typical A321 seating arrangement is 120 to 170 passengers, with a maximum capacity of up to 220 travelers

The Boeing 737 and the Airbus A320 families have long been considered the workhorses of the global aviation sector. Airbus now holds 68 per cent share in the narrow-body aircraft market, off the back of Boeing’s 737 MAX crisis. During the peak production of the Boeing 737 NG and the Airbus ceo family, the market was split 50% / 50% between all aircraft variants of each family of aircraft.
Over 1784 Airbus A321ceo aircraft have been produced as of 2022. The aircraft was built in a passenger configuration and significant interest exists in an aftermarket freighter variation. An estimated 1737 A321ceos are still in operation.
