Saudia has taken delivery of its first Airbus A321XLR, HZ-ASBA, and put it into revenue service with a low-density, high-premium cabin. The aircraft carries 24 business-class suites in a 1-1 layout and 120 economy seats, for 144 seats overall.
Panasonic Avionics Astrova IFE, Modular Interactive and the Arc 3D moving map are installed throughout. Since entry into service on 3 June 2026, the jet has already rotated through Jeddah, Vienna, Paris, Riyadh and Rome, giving Saudia a long-range narrowbody for premium-point flying and fleet flexibility.
