The Airbus A321 is a medium-haul, twin-engine airliner developed by the united European concern Airbus S.A.S, the sole shareholder of which today is the European Aerospace and Defense Concern (EDSA).
Airbus A321 belongs to the family of narrow-body passenger aircraft A320 designed for medium-haul airlines. This model is the "largest" in its family - the A321 is almost seven meters longer than the original model, the A320, which allows the aircraft to carry 24 percent more passengers. The Airbus A321 has six passenger doors and eight emergency exits located on two sides of the aircraft. It also has a more reinforced chassis. The flight radius, when fully loaded, is the same as that of the youngest member of the family - the Airbus A318.
The aircraft was not only lengthened compared to the base model. The changes also affected the engines, the power of which was increased. The wing of the aircraft was reinforced and designed for higher loads compared to the wing of the A320. Airbus A321 performance in terms of noise, emissions and fuel consumption is almost the same as that of the entire A320 series. The aircraft is equipped with EFIS avionics and a fly-by-wire digital control system, completely identical to the A320 aircraft.
The Airbus A321 development program was launched in 1989, with the main goal of competing with the American Boeing 737-900ER. The first flight took place on March 11, 1993. Commissioned in early 1994. Assembled at a facility located at the small German airport Hamburg-Finkenwerder.
Today, the A321 aircraft is in demand among air carriers and orders for its construction continue to arrive. Airbus A321s are currently in the fleet of S7 Airlines, Red Wings, Air Astana, Onur Air, SWISS and others.
Location and numbering of seats in the cabin, seating diagram in the Airbus A321 aircraft. The best and least comfortable seats on the plane
Interior scheme, lAirbus A321 Aeroflot
- Seats from 1st and 7th row considered slightly worse. There is a partition in front of the first row, there is enough space, but the proximity to the toilets can be a little disturbing. And seats in row 7 are close to the noisier economy class.
- Seats in row 8- places of increased comfort economy class. Since the emergency exit is located in front of them, there is a lot of free legroom. You can get up from any place in this row without disturbing your neighbors. The seats are at the front of the cabin, so you have a lot of choice when choosing meals (usually food and drinks start serving from the beginning to the end).
- 18th row seats- standard economy class seats. But the location near the toilets makes them not very comfortable.
- Seats in row 19 located behind the emergency exit. Just like in row 8, there is a lot of free legroom, but toilets are located nearby, which makes the flight not very comfortable.
- 20 row convenient enough. The chairs are comfortable and located near the windows. There is a lot of free space, so there is where to stretch your legs and you can get up without disturbing the neighbors.
- Seats in row 30, C and D- Proximity to toilets can be inconvenient.
- 31 row (last)- the worst places. The backs of the chairs do not recline, as there is a wall immediately behind them. The proximity of the toilet can make the flight uncomfortable due to the frequent movement of passengers and the slamming of doors.
The best business class seats from 2 to 6 rows. Here, the seats are arranged in a 2:2 layout, which increases the space between rows and seats.
The best economy class seats on the Airbus A321
The best seats for the economy class of the Airbus A321 are located in the 8th row. They are such because of their location - in front of these places there is only a partition separating business and economy classes, which means that there is more than enough legroom here. Also one of the best are the places located in row 20(according to the diagram) and marked with letters A and F. This is due to the lack of seats in front of them, which provides more legroom.
The safest on the Airbus A321
It is believed that in the Airbus A321, seats No. 19B, No. 19E, No. 8A and No. 8F are the safest, as they are located near the emergency exits.

- 1 row has pros and cons. On the one hand, no one will recline the back of their chair on you, on the other hand, you will be in front of the partition for the entire flight. There will be enough space for the knees, but stretching the legs forward will not work much. Also, the location of technical rooms (on-board kitchen and toilet) nearby does not add convenience. However, there is a plus here - you will get food first.
- 9F and 23F row. The backs of the seats are not adjustable, as there is a partition immediately behind them.
- 10 and24 ABC. The seatbacks are not adjustable, as emergency hatches are located immediately behind this row.
- 10 and 24 DE. The backs of the seats are also locked, however, the advantage is that in this section there are 2, not 3 chairs. It is always convenient, especially if you are flying together.
- The most convenient places are rows 11 and 25. They are located immediately after the emergency exits, because of this, the distance to the row in front is increased. Consequently, not only will you be able to recline your chair, stretch your legs forward in comfort, but you can also easily leave your seat with minimal disturbance to your neighbors. However, certain categories of passengers cannot be accommodated in these places: with small children and animals, disabled people, elderly passengers. Also, you can not clutter up the approaches to emergency doors, all your hand luggage should be placed on the shelves. This is related to flight safety technology.
- 36 row, places C and D. Near these places, small queues to the toilet can accumulate.
- 37 row(last). The backs of the chairs rest against the wall of the toilet, so they are not adjustable. Also on this row, all the sounds of the toilet are clearly audible (draining the tank, slamming doors) - these are the most uncomfortable, worst places on board.

- First row located close enough to the wall of the toilets, the kitchen and to the partition. You will have to sit the whole flight looking at the wall, and this is not very comfortable. Also, these places are quite noisy due to the kitchen and the close location of the toilet. But there is plenty of knee room in this row, and there are guarantees that no one will recline their seat back on you.
- 10 row. The seats in this row do not recline, as the seats are located in front of the first emergency exit.
- 11 row located after the emergency exit and there is enough space in front. Thus, you can get up from your seats without disturbing your neighbors, with the convenience of stretching your legs. Also, a plus is that there are two chairs in a row, not three. The disadvantage of these places is that the folding tables are placed in the armrests and they do not move, there is no porthole, you cannot place hand luggage on the floor and in the aisle. Also, for reasons of flight safety, it is forbidden for passengers with children and animals, with disabilities, and the elderly to be in these places.
- 12 row A and F. Sufficiently comfortable places. They have additional legroom, as there is no chair in front.
- 25 row. The seatbacks do not recline. But there are two seats in a row, not three. This is a good advantage.
- 26 row. Not bad seats, since there is legroom, you can get up from your seat without disturbing anyone. Cons are the same as in row 11. Seats at the portholes A and F may be slightly beveled and missing one of the armrests.
- 37 row, place D. Comfortable, but located near the toilets.
- 37 row seats A,B,C and 38 row. The most uncomfortable places. All the same disadvantages as the penultimate row, in addition, the backs of the seats can rest against the walls of the toilets and not recline.
Flight performance
- Maximum speed: 895 km/h
- Cruise speed: 845 km/h
- Flight range: 4260-5500 km

The airbus a321 aircraft is a modified model of the world-famous A 320 aircraft. But, unlike its “big brother”, this model has more powerful engines, better brakes and a longer length (increased to 44.5 meters, that is, longer And 320 by 7 meters and can "take" on board 24% more passengers). It is also interesting that this aircraft was assembled not in France (Toulouse), familiar to the A320, but in Germany (Hamburg).
Note! Aircraft A321 - narrow-body. It serves on medium-haul airlines.
Who is the manufacturer
The aircraft are manufactured by the Airbus Industry (Airbus S.A.S) consortium and its member companies such as DASA, which developed the A321-200. Airbus is one of the largest passenger airliner companies in the world.
Date of release of the model and modification
There are two modifications of this aircraft: A321-100 and A321-200. A321-100, in turn, also has two options: with V2500 engines (A321-130) and CFM56 engines (A321-110). The program for the development of aircraft of this model was launched back in 1989. Trial flights of two models were made in 1993, all the necessary documentation was issued in 1994, and deliveries to airlines began at the end of 1994 – early 1995. For the first time, aircraft of this type were put on flights by the German company Lufthansa and the Italian Alitalia.
Aircraft A321-100 could not become worthy competitors 757 Boeing. That is why the possibility of releasing a new modification with an increased take-off weight and a greater flight range was considered. For the first time, the creation of the A321-200 was discussed back in 1994. The Airbus A321-200 was supposed to serve long European routes and routes directly linking the US coasts.
The idea of a more advanced modification, with additional fuel tanks for 2900 liters, fell in love with the airlines, and work on the aircraft began. He made his first flight in 1996.
Work is currently underway on the A321 NEO. They are equipped with new economical engines, which are now being promoted by Airbus. Fuel economy on such an aircraft will be around 16 percent (and when installing such an engine on an old aircraft of the same series – 15-14%). Also, this aircraft is designed for a long range (the indicator is increased by 950 km) and for a large payload (the difference with the old models is 2 tons), engineers improved the rate of climb, increased cruising speed. In addition, all A321 NEO aircraft will be equipped with the signature Sharklets wing (translated as “shark fin”). These are wingtip-type winglets (curved to the top). Such a wing was developed by Airbus.
Engineers say that it is capable of:
- improve the overall aerodynamics of the aircraft;
- reduce inductive resistance (due to the disappearance of the vortex breaking off the swept wing);
- reduce fuel consumption over long distances by 3.5%;
- increase payload and flight range.
It is clear that aircraft with such characteristics will become commercially promising and many world airlines will want to purchase them.
Capacity, range, speed, altitude
All aircraft of the A321 series are equipped with EFIS avionics. They allow you to monitor all indicators during the flight and track possible failures of on-board systems.
When designing aircraft, a variety of composite materials were used (especially when creating wings, vertical and horizontal stabilizers).
If we talk about technical characteristics, then they are as follows (for example, A321-200).

Airplane seating plan
The standard Airbus A321 is an aircraft divided into two classes with a total of 185 seats. 157 seats are in economy class in a 3-3 pattern, and 28 seats are in business class in a 2-2 pattern. The width of the cabin is 3.7 meters, the seats are soft and comfortable. The undoubted pluses are that the interior is equipped with good sound insulation.
In some aircraft (for example, those operating on charter lines), the standard equipment has been changed. In such aircraft there is no division into classes. The total number of seats is 220.
There are also packages such as:
- 28 business class seats + 142 economy class seats;
- 16 business class seats + 167 economy class seats.
Note! The plane has 6 doors and 8 emergency exits. Their location is provided on both sides of the aircraft.
Description of seats by blocks of rows
Let's consider the standard two-class (28-157) configuration of the aircraft a 321 with the layout of the cabin in rows and determine the pros and cons of all seats on the aircraft.
Comparative characteristics of seats on the plane
| ranks | Best/worst places |
|---|---|
| 1-7 row | Business class seats are located here. But this does not mean that all of them are comfortable and convenient. The best seats on the plane are located in the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th business class rows. The worst places in this class are in the 1st and 7th rows. This arrangement is due to the fact that the seats of the first row are very close to the partition that separates the cabin from the toilet and the seats of the aircraft stewards, and the seats of the seventh row are as close as possible to the noisy economy class |
| 8 row (6 seats) | It is believed that these are the best seats in the economy class. The fact is that there is a small space here, formed due to the presence of an emergency exit in this part of the aircraft. You can get up without disturbing your neighbors, stretch your legs. Also, these places are convenient in that the stewards move with food and drinks from the first rows to the last. So passengers who take these seats will have a fairly large choice. |
| 9-17 row | The seats are standard, not bad, not good, the distance between the seats does not allow passengers of high stature and large dimensions to sit comfortably |
| 18 row (6 seats) | The seats are bad, located close to the economy class toilets. There are always crowds of people, very noisy |
| 19 row (4 seats) | Controversial places. On the one hand, there is enough space here, you can stretch your legs and walk without disturbing your neighbors. On the other hand, the places are located close to the toilets, so constant crush and noise are provided. |
| 20 row (6 places) | The best seats in this class are located on both sides of the windows (A and F). The fact is that due to the lack of seats in front, free space is formed, you can comfortably get settled. These are probably the best places in the second part of the economy class |
| 21-29 row | Standard places, not bad, but not very good either |
| 30 row | Very uncomfortable places near the aisle, on both sides. It is close enough to the toilets located in the tail section, so noise and the presence of a constant queue of people are guaranteed. |
| 31 row (6 seats) | Worst economy class seats. First, close to the toilets. Secondly, since there is a partition nearby, the backs of the seats do not recline, which creates additional discomfort. |
Thus, when choosing seats, you need to be guided by two factors: their proximity to the toilets, kitchen, technical room and the presence of a partition nearby (the chairs will not recline). Large people are best placed on row 8 or 20, but here are the most comfortable places for those traveling with children (row 19 is also suitable in this case, since the proximity of the toilets will be a plus, not a minus, you won’t have to go with the child through the whole salon).
Note! Window seats and aisle seats have their own advantages and disadvantages. It is easier to go to the toilet from a seat near the aisle, at the same time, no one will disturb the person sitting by the window. The choice is up to the passenger: hoping to sleep or work - choose a window seat, think that you will often go to the toilet - take an aisle seat.
Entertainment system on board, sockets, wifi
As standard, the aircraft has 4 kitchens and 4 restrooms. There is a wardrobe in business class. There are also 6 seats for flight attendants.
Seats for women with children with special attachments for cradles are located in business class (1 row, 4 seats) with cabin layout 28-142 and in economy class (8 row, 6 seats) with cabin layout 16-167 and 28-157.
At the moment, about 1000 aircraft of the A321 series have been produced and, since they are in demand, production continues.
These aircraft are part of the Aeroflot fleet. A321 Aeroflot is a successful aircraft that is operated to the maximum on regional lines.

Airbus, or as it is called in our homeland, Airbus, is today one of the main suppliers of aircraft around the world. The world-famous company has its own production facilities in several European countries: in Germany, France, Spain and the United Kingdom. The headquarters of the aviation giant is located in a small town called Blagnac, which is in the suburbs of Toulouse, France. The staff is about 50 thousand people. The airline produces a full line of aircraft, including the Airbus A321 aircraft, the cabin layout of which can accommodate up to 220 seats (in an enlarged version), depending on the customer's desire and configuration.
Family "A320"
In the eighties of the last century, this line of narrow-body aircraft in the Airbus lineup was the most advanced in terms of technology. For the first time in the series, EDSU (electro-remote control system) was used, and for the first time the cockpit was equipped with side control handles instead of conventional steering columns. The plumage of the aircraft, its end winglets on the wings were made of composite materials. The main competitors of the series, especially the extended version with the Airbus A321 index, were the American Boeing B737. The latest generations of the B737NG (New Generation) are equipped with electronic and automatic systems no worse than Airbuses.
Increased demand
However, the demand for European aircraft is growing day by day. In February 2008, the plant was forced to open an additional site for the assembly of such aircraft in Hamburg (Germany) due to a sharp increase in demand for models. Up to this point, they managed with the production facilities of one plant in Toulouse, where, among other things, the Airbus A321 was assembled. The layout of the aircraft cabin was determined by the Airbus model. The smallest of this class is the A318, with its layout, one class (economic Y) could take on board a maximum of 138 people.
Long awaited release
In 1994, an extended version of the bestseller was presented. Airlines, customers of the plant, wanted to get more, but for about the same money. Switching to another class would mean higher costs for fuel, permits and certification, higher airport taxes, and so on. Therefore, the long-awaited release of the Airbus A321 model was received very warmly in the narrow circles of top managers from the aviation world. Factories in Toulouse and Hamburg were flooded with orders, production worked for 24 hours without interruption, workers went out in three, and sometimes four shifts. The 321st entered into direct competition with the Boeing B757, despite the fact that the latter has increased passenger capacity and flight range. Since 2005, the B757 has been discontinued, and the number of orders for the Airbus A321 has increased again, despite the low dollar. For Airbus, this remains a rather serious problem, because historically it has developed that orders are paid in dollars, although all of the concern's production sites are located in the eurozone.
More than A320
The increased length of the fuselage allows you to accommodate 170 passengers in two cabins of varying degrees of comfort or up to 220 people with a maximum filling of the passenger compartment with boarding chairs. Airbus also leaves the opportunity for the future operator to choose the cabin layout from the proposed acceptable options for the Airbus A321 aircraft. The layout of the seats and the distance between them can be changed to values from the range proposed by the manufacturer. In the most economical version of the cabin, 36 rows of two built-in seats are installed to the left and right of the aisle and one row, as a rule, at the third pair of emergency exits with double seats on opposite sides of the aisle. There is also an option for arranging seats in 35 rows of six seats in a row, 2 rows of four seats (at the second and third pair of emergency exits) and the last row of two seats installed in the rear of the fuselage. With such seating arrangements, the Airbus A321 cabin has a minimum distance between adjacent seats of 28-30 centimeters (about 11 inches).
Where are the best places?
But even with this layout of the aircraft, you can find a place for yourself superior comfort. The first rows of the cabin are always characterized by increased legroom. Even in those variations of aircraft where the economy class is separated from the business class by a wall, there will always be more space than in the aisle. An additional advantage is the fact that no one will throw the chair in front of you on your knees, and in most cases they start feeding from here. But airlines almost always charge extra for this seat reservation, as well as for emergency exit seats. The Airbus A321 has four pairs of such exits, and at two of them, in the center of the cabin, you can try to book a seat for yourself. If you are not a child, not a pensioner, not a disabled person and not a pregnant woman, then you will be allowed to fly here, if not, you will be transplanted. Those are the rules! Neatly behind the twin seats is another comfortable place to fly. Where there is no seat in front. There is no charge for booking such a place, and you can stretch your legs far forward. Here is a real chance to get your best seat on the plane, and even for free. In addition, there are no restrictions on categories of air passengers at these places. Everyone has the right to sit here!
Business Class. Seat map
"Airbus A321" can be assembled from several classes of passenger compartments. First class always and everywhere, in any airline, is distinguished by comfortable seats, super service and a special attitude to those who choose it. But the business class can be deprived. For example, in the Airbus A321 of Aeroflot, the distance between the seats is not much greater than in the economy class. Of the seven rows of twin seats, the first and last row, if possible, is best not to choose for the flight. Passengers in the first row will be disturbed by the closely spaced wardrobe partition and the presence of bathrooms, and the last, seventh, row is located quite close to the noisy economy class cabin.
The Airbus A321 is the largest aircraft of the A320 family, which is an extended version of the A320 with increased passenger capacity. The standard configuration of the Airbus A321 includes a two-class cabin with 185 passenger seats: 169 of them are economy class seats and 16 seats are located in business class. The flight range of the A321 is 5 - 5.5 thousand km.
There are about a dozen Airbus A321 configurations designed for flights of various durations and for a different number of passenger seats. For example, for low-cost or charter flights, the standard configuration is changed to increase the number of economy class passenger seats to 220. This configuration implies a one-class cabin of the aircraft.
Undoubtedly, in order to choose the most comfortable seats in Airbus, you need to have a diagram of the model of the aircraft you plan to fly. However, any configuration of the aircraft is suitable in order to understand the principle of the location of passenger seats.
The Airbus A321 cabin layout is very popular, which is preferred by the well-known Russian airline -.
Scheme of the A321 cabin taken from the official Aeroflot website.
Let's look at the location of the places in more detail, note which are good / bad and tell you what their difference is.
1-7 rows. Business class seats, however, also have relatively uncomfortable seats: in the first and seventh rows. This is due to the fact that a partition is installed in front of the 1st row and the bathroom is located quite close, and immediately after the seventh row there is a noisy economy class, which can also cause discomfort. Therefore, when choosing seats in business class, it is best to purchase tickets for seats from the second to the sixth rows.
8 row. In the economy class of the liner, the passenger seats of this row are superior in convenience to other rows, since additional free space has formed here due to the fact that an emergency exit is located in front of this row.
In addition, it simplifies the movement around the cabin: getting up from your seat, you do not cause inconvenience to your neighbors, and the neighbors do not disturb you. It deserves the title of the best economy class seats on board this aircraft, also because they are located in the front of the aircraft, and, as you know, drinks and food are usually served moving from the front rows to the last. Therefore, you will have a more varied choice than other passengers.
9-17 rows. Standard places that differ little from each other.
18 row. These places are also called standard, however, due to the proximity of the latrines, they can create some inconvenience. The constant movement of passengers and "queues" to the toilet create noise, which can not only be distracting, but possibly annoying.
19 row. In terms of location, this row is comparable to the seats in the eighth row. Since row 19 is located behind the emergency exit, there is also extra legroom, but the closely spaced restrooms make these seats not as comfortable as in row 8.
20 row. Without exception, all the seats of the 20th row can be called comfortable and good. This row attracts passengers not only with free legroom, but also with the close location of the windows, which provides an opportunity to admire the panoramas of the Earth during the flight. Good places!
30 seat row (C and D)- here the inconvenience is explained by the close proximity to the latrines.
31 row. It is worth paying attention to the last 31st row: in addition to the fact that there are inconveniences here due to the close placement of toilets to the seats, the back of the chair in the last row cannot recline, since there is a wall behind the 31st row. These seats can be recognized as the most uncomfortable seats on the plane, so they are bought when there are no other options left.
- Before buying tickets, look at the diagram of the aircraft you are planning to fly;
- If you are not completely sure of your choice, you can get professional advice from an airline representative;
- Choose the most comfortable places for you, using the tips and recommendations above;
- Places located near the kitchen, bathrooms, technical rooms or at the end of the salon should be chosen only if there are no other options;
- Try not to buy seats that have a partition in front of them or seats that do not recline at all, especially if the flight is long.
The Airbus A321 is a medium-haul, twin-engine airliner developed by the united European concern Airbus S.A.S, the sole shareholder of which today is the European Aerospace and Defense Concern (EDSA).
The Airbus A321 is part of the A320 family of narrow-body passenger aircraft designed for medium-haul airlines. This model is the "largest" in its family - the A321 is longer than the original model, the A320, by almost seven meters. This allows the aircraft to carry 24 percent more passengers. It also has a more reinforced chassis. The flight radius, when fully loaded, is the same as that of the youngest member of the family - the Airbus A318.
The A321 performance in terms of noise, emissions and fuel consumption is almost the same as that of the entire A320 series. The aircraft is equipped with EFIS avionics and a fly-by-wire digital control system, completely identical to the A320 aircraft.
Today, the A321 version is assembled at a facility located in the small German airport Hamburg-Finkenwerder, in contrast to the A320, which are assembled mainly in the French town of Toulouse.
The A321 development program was launched in 1989, with the main goal of competing with the American.
The aircraft was not only lengthened compared to the base model. The changes also affected the engines, the power of which was increased. The wing of the aircraft was reinforced and designed for higher loads compared to the wing of the A320.
The first version of the aircraft received the designation A321-100. The first flight of this version took place on March 11, 1993. This model used IAE-V2500 (International Aero Engines) engines. Version with engines CFM-56, power 133 kN, made the first test flight in May of the same year. The flight range of this version of the airliner averaged 4,500 kilometers. The aircraft was certified in early December 1994. After that, he began to enter the airline. The first air carriers to receive the Airbus A321 were the German Lufthansa and the Italian airline Alitalia.
In 1995, work began on the next modification of the aircraft, which received the designation A321-200. This model has additional fuel tanks, which made it possible to extend the flight range to 5550 kilometers. The first flight of the A321-200 took place in 1996.
Salon airbus A321
There are several options for the layout of the passenger compartment in the Airbus A321:
- The economical version is capable of carrying up to 200 passengers.
- The charter layout of the cabin is capable of accommodating 220 passenger seats.
- The two-class configuration has 185 seats.
The A321 has six passenger doors and eight emergency exits located on two sides of the aircraft.
Today, the A321 aircraft is in demand among air carriers and orders for its construction continue to arrive.
