As was announced today, the -800 is going to be the new platform for the MRTT+. Airbus didn’t spend all that money developing the airframe to sell just a dozen jets.

I will ALWAYS pick speed over comfort. I live in New Zealand and my family in Europe. The quickest I can get home is about 26 hours (each way!) . Much cheaper options often are 35 hours+ (due to longer layovers). I always filter by fastest, fewest stops and am happy to pay $500+ to save these hours. If I could get my trip time to sub 20 hours each way I'd pay another wedge of money to make this happen.

"Bringing back the supersonic era"That is true.United Airlines has announced that they now have a Concorde 2.0 but without the pointy nose,but flies on the same route as the Concorde.United's Concorde can go twice the height of a normal airplane, (60,000ft)it can also cut the flight time between NYC and London in half.

Long Haul budget airlines in Asia are working well. Take for example Cebu Pacific, Air Asia and Scoot.

Love the livery. Wish them well. Never going on a modern Boeing.

Norwegian did not go bankcorupt, they just stoped flying their long haul flights, they still operate flights within Europe

All they have done thus far is make CGI renderings.

Most of this is definitely true between Europe & the USA, but Scoot, Air Asia and Jet Star all seem to be making it work in East/SE Asia and Australia. I wonder what the difference between the markets is!

I flew Norse from LGW to JFK for less than $300 roundtrip and it was pretty good. If you can compromise on airplane food and luggage, and you purely only need to get from London to New York, I think Norse is amazing

I can see Wizz using the A321XLR they already fly medium haul from southern Europe to AUH doesn’t need much extra range and could see London to AUH flights with the XLR

A231XLR is not gonna change anything, as 787 did not. The only thing i can imagine is a small airline operation just A220's with hub located either in St. John's or Iceland. Small planes gives grater flexibility thats gonna be neded for such airline.

It’s amazing how the federal government gets involved in areas where they should not, in areas where they should, as far as the planes being so crowded/small they could care less about.

Next survive 24 hours here

They should bloody want it. Airbus has not gone wrong. Airbus Marketing should be doing their job and selling it! The A330-800neo is better than the 787.

Unfortunate till yet airindia flights services companies not yet given entry to Jharsuguda airport odisha since last 3yesrs to provide its trusted airtravellers services to the over daily thousands airtravellers o to 6mertrocities and important state's capital cities from Jharsuguda airport coverages 150km radioused vast industrial mines commercial productive hubs region s. By which the airtravellers of this region s aee running to bhubaneswar Raipur ranchi 3 airport s 400km faraway s and killing their time and excessive double expenses. The indigo flight services successfully since 5months running its flights services to bangalore and Kolkata Delhi only. The Mumbai Chennai hyderabad patna jeypore ahemedabad chandigarh pune bhubaneswar Raipur ranchi vizag ranchi cities from Jharsuguda airport not yet provided hope airindia flights services companies will give uts services to the above cities

Unless airindia vistara flights services will enter like vss airport Jharsuguda odisha to provide it's trusted airindia flights services facilities to 6mertrocities,and important state's capital cities like Indigo flight services immediately from Jharsuguda airport odisha vast industrial mines commercial productive zones 12districts and its peripheral Chattisgarh state s industrial mines productive zones for daily over thousands of airtravellers the airindia vistara flights services will suffer as usual. As per the present very very competitive trend its needs subject to demanding s public and airtravellers faster communication services facilities, the airindia vistara flights services should touch to the airtravellers of the Jharsuguda airport coverages 150km radioused western odisha and its peripheral Chattisgarh state s like Indigo flight services. Accordingly country wide world wide it needs airindia airtravellers flights services from the potential productive airport s like Jharsuguda odisha 400km distanced bhubaneswar Raipur ranchi airport s.

Starship will put them out of business.

Good video!

True they should stay with the 787

Boeing has negative dollars right now. Let’s stop trying to jump to massive conclusions. They don’t have the money, the reputation, or the technological capability to bring a clean sheet design to the market. Especially in one that it has nothing going for it. This is a stretch at best.

With the certification of the XLR close, the true range should out soon. What you fail to mention is the advantage of having a plane in the big a32x family instead of a fully new type, economy of scales will come into play fast especially if Arbus manages the deliver on their 75 a month target

Amazing how airbus and its system of different languages, different countries and cultures works better then just American. Oh wait, America is about profit not products. Top men get consulted……who’s consulting??? Not engineers……consultants who only know cut labor, timelines and profit (short term)

I agree, Boeing should build another aircraft, they call it the 797 if that makes them happy. Then they will have 3 aircraft (multiple models) that need major fixing. They can't can't fix the 737 and 787's go ahead and develop another aircraft and maybe they will go bankrupt sooner than we all expect..

Obviously they need to sell more, however, given the relatively small development costs, they really dont need to sell that many to make it worthwhile.

This aged very well

Stopt dreaming, it will never happen!!! AIRBUS are the masters of the skies, Boeing will not recover for several years

boeing is trapped because if it launches the 797 and in 5 years airbus launches an aircraft of the same size but with the new reactors on which it is working they will not be able to compete, that is why neither of the 2 manufacturers will launch a new program to the moment !!!!!

The aircraft that should of become the MAX is the B757, the 757 was already a brilliant aircraft and ideal for larger engines due to its shape and higher clearance off the ground. The B737 should of been replaced with a whole new model, trying to continuously modify an old 1960s 737 fuselage is not good in my opinion.

I believe that the 797 will look exactly like a narrowbody version of the 787 💯💯💯💯💯💯 I doubt that it will be a widebody

Where did you get the -200 miles shorter range due to modifications in the fuel tank? Airbus already stated that these changes will not affect A321XLR's range.

Brit here, whatever Boeing needs to do, ain't with that management.

Boeing should start to built airplanes like they did in the 20 century, safe, reliable and not like they are doing now. I don’t trust Boeing anymore!

fix their problems by scrapping the 7-10MAX Prioritize B787 Delay B777 till 2028

Nope just update the 757 theres no $ to build 797.

Boeing needs to re process their engineering & salvage their sorry product line, especially the sun down of 737.

This deal should have happened. Jet Blue would have been competition for the big three forcing them to either bring down prices or improve service.
