"ANA Group will benefit from unbeatable fuel efficiency and excellent cabin comfort for its demanding customers." 

A321neo will be designed to accommodate up to 240 passengers, while the A321ceo and A320neo will seat 220 and 180 people respectively. The aircraft will have optimised cabin space called ‘Cabin-Flex’.

Airbus conducted the A320neo maiden flight in September 2014, and is currently carrying out flight test campaign.

The A320neo is equipped with new-generation engines and Sharklet wing tip devices, which are claimed to offer more than 15% fuel efficiency.

The A320 family of airliners have reached more than 11,500 orders to date, and are said to have the widest cabins and best level of comfort in all classes with Airbus’ 18in-wide seats in economy.
