Why airlines are all-in on new single-aisle planes for transatlantic flights
Briefly

New narrow-body planes, specifically the Airbus A321neo family, are revolutionizing transatlantic travel with their cost efficiency, extended range, and flexible cabin configurations.
The emergence of the A321XLR allows airlines to connect profitable routes that traditionally required larger aircraft, significantly increasing transatlantic single-aisle flights.
In 2024, single-aisle plane flights between North America and Europe will surge by 14% compared to last year, illustrating a shift in airline strategy.
Boeing's 757, once dominant on transatlantic routes, has plummeted in market share from 82% in 2019 to just 23%, highlighting the dramatic change in demand.
