European plane maker Airbus said it plans to develop its longest-range single-aisle plane yet, adding pressure on rival Boeing, which plans a jet for the same market but is distracted by its 737 MAX crisis.
PARIS—Airbus SE on Monday said it plans to develop its longest-range single-aisle plane yet, adding pressure on rival Boeing Co., which plans a jet for the same market but is distracted by its 737 MAX crisis.
Airbus said the A321XLR, an upgrade to its popular A321neo narrow-body plane, is expected to enter service in 2023, several years before the putative Boeing midsize plane would be ready. The two planes are aimed at replacing Boeing’s out-of-production 757 and some slightly larger 767s.
