What Is The Airbus A321neo's 'Cabin Flex' Configuration? 

The concept seems easy enough to understand. Makes a lot of sense.

Didn’t Boeing have this exit layout first with 737-900ER?

Cebu Pacific also has A321neos in that config. Their A321neos can seat 236 pax in a single-class economy configuration.

JetBlue has both regular and ACF versions of the 321 and place no more than 200 seats on all economy configurations. Giving you that legroom!

wings flex NOW THE CABIN FLEXES

It seems to allow maximum flexibility and have most configurations covered. The flexibility should increase the number of customers wanting to take on previous customers aircraft, which may have been configured with a business class cabin, and presumably help maintain its second hand values, further reducing the running costs for the first operator. Additionally, blocking off unnecessary doors will mean less doors to maintain. The one disadvantage that I can see, is for those airlines who like to board through the door in front of the wing to allow the premium passengers to 'turn left'.

I like the a321NX actually liked the less 2 doors and added the 2 em doors but I also like the 3 door configuration on the back

1:06 love the caption that says "asid"

Anyone notice at 1:44 he put 62 instead of 162

Airbus comes up with some funky designs. I like to stay away Airbus equipment but enjoy the a330.

Interesting video as always Simple Flying, but I would like to point out that the table ~00:23 has an error - I think "Door 4" should be "Door 3" and the second "Door 1" should actually be "Door 4".

No surprise to me trying to find Airbus only airlines from now on

The 1-class maximum for the A321neo is 244 passengers, not 240.

Makes a lot of sense.

I think Boeing have a similar idea for door configuration with 737-900 also the 757-200 and 767-300 have two different doors configuration that the airliner choosing the optimum for his number of seats and config

Can't they make new A321ULR? Will they ever consider it? The range is 5,500 miles. Is that good enough?

Nice video! may I ask what song is playing the background?{ first few min} You use it often in video's, thanks in advance

I hope the cabin won't start flexing for real after those changes to the doors and structure :P

Soo.. basically it would just look like the regular 321NEO with two over wing exits instead of the fwd wing door

good

Good for low cost carriers in Asia Pacific region.

As an aviation logistician, I certainly believe this is where the future of flying is heading; smaller aircraft means less CO2 emission, it is also economically friendly for the airlines(which may indirectly save some costs for passengers). Each aircraft has limited amount of space, however fitting more passenger is certainly a smart choice. Besides, this might mean that every passenger will be paying less due to the reason that airlines have a targeted yield; if more passengers are paying, then every passenger will be paying less. For example in Asia, bigger aircraft are commonly used despite short routes(A380, B777, B747 for 4 hours routes); due to a much bigger population in Asia than in Europe, airlines have to operate some bigger jets, however this is not environmentally nor economically friendly since CO2 emission and unit cost will be higher for larger aircraft. This is where the "Flex" configuration takes the advantage in this case, since range is not prioritised the most in short haul flights. In other words, an A380 is capable of flying from Europe to America for example, this is on the other hand not important if the flight is only less than 4 hours long, which means smaller aircraft would be enough.

Ohh this is what I see with Cebu Pacific in the Philippines..

Brilliant…wonder if Boeing is paying attention?

So how do they board? Do the board from the back or the front?

3:37 can somebody please tell me when this A380 was at orlando? I can tell it's orlando you cannot hide this information from me I know somebody knows lol. I just feel like I would've saw a plane this big

Is this safe? Doors 1L and R seem to be quite far from the wing exists. I hope airbus is not sacrificing safety.

🧐

The Fokker F130NG will be superior on cabin configuration. The Fokker 130 offers a single class configuration carrying 137 passengers. Various alternative layouts are possible, including First or Business Class configurations with a wide four-abreast seating. Modular areas for galleys, lavatories, wardrobes and stowages are available. The Fokker 130 incorporates the latest manufacturing technologies and materials to create a modern and spacious passenger experience. Latest styling and lighting principles increase passenger comfort. The Fokker 130 has asymmetric luggage bins to provide maximum overhead stowage space. Under floor cargo capacity is increased by the fuselage stretch and miniaturization of under floor avionics equipment. The spacious interior dimensions and low cabin noise of the Fokker 130 provide a unique and attractive passenger centric experience.

That’s exactly what Pilots flying Airbuses are missing ? Another section in FCOM 🙈 and Airbus will make it so hard that they themselves don’t understand it .

It's flexible cabin, next

How about they stop trying to cram as many seats in, and not have to create some insane door concept. For gods sake the A321 is a small plane, not meant to fit hundreds of passengers

weird flex but okay

The airbus 320 - 321 is a improve boing 757 if you look at it. Is the same fraim. Boing put to much on the old 737 old fraim. Big mistake. That's why boing lost... I know 737 was for some airlines request. But the aire fraim is to old for todays tecnology. The 757 airfraim is better. Long landing geers for those engines not like 737.

thats exactly why the 321 neo is absolutely rubbish! i was sitting and i got my neck screwed from it!!

Airbus is just always the SMARTEST than BOEING
