The baby Airbus. Same cockpit, same systems, fewer rows. Airlines love its flexibility on thinner routes where a full A320 would fly half-empty.
Fun fact
The A319 can fly nonstop from New York to Los Angeles — impressive range for a narrowbody.
How to spot one
Shortest A320 family member. Single overwing exit on each side. Nearly square cross-section.
Crews call it
The Baby Bus
Sounds like
IAE V2500 has a distinctive rumble; CFM56-5 is smoother
