Vistara receives A321, 1st in South Asia to provide flat beds on a narrow bodied plane

Mumbai: Vistara Friday announced it has received its first Airbus A321, the stretched, longer ranged version of the A320, the most popular passenger aircraft in the world.

The airline said it has become the first in south Asia to provide flat beds on a narrow bodied plane.

The aircraft is part of the order of 50 from the Airbus A320 family placed in 2018.


The Airbus A321neo aircraft are intended for use on short to medium-haul international routes or destinations within seven hours of flying time. In March 2020, the airline inducted its first widebody aircraft, the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, for long-haul international operations.
