Lufthansa operates a significant fleet of A321neos; not rare within their operations or worldwide (more than 1,000 delivered).

Record Flights

Used by some airlines for transatlantic services (e.g. New York–London), but not notable for longest-range flights among narrowbodies.

Generally excellent safety record. Some isolated ground incidents, but no fatal crashes for the A321neo as of 2024.

In active service; will likely continue operating through the 2030s.
