welcomed its first A321neo in December 2022, marking its debut as the newest Airbus narrowbody operator in the region.

The airline’s A321neo fleet, powered by Pratt & Whitney PW1100G engines, is configured to accommodate 182 passengers in two classes. Additionally, Korean Air introduced new cabin products for the A321neo, including lie-flat seats in the business class section.

With the recent order for 20 additional A321neo aircraft, Korean Air’s total order book now stands at 110 new planes, including Boeing 787-9s, 787-10s, and 737 Max 8 jets.

The delivery of the initial 30 A321neos is expected to continue through 2027, although specific delivery dates for the extra 20 aircraft were not disclosed. The airline intends to phase out its aging A330s and 777-200ERs as part of its fleet renewal strategy.
