Airbus A320 Cabins Are Getting Sexier In 2020

While airplane seats have gotten tighter over the years (at least in economy), there's no denying that the aesthetics of cabins have improved, between mood lighting, the size of overhead bins, sleek cabin design, etc. This is an area where Boeing has really led the way, both when it comes to widebody and narrowbody planes.…

i have just flown with a new easyjet a321neo from Prague to Milan. it had the new airspace interior with XL bins: it has a very beautiful cabin. I liked the light orange LED strips placed under the bins and the bins are huge.

For the A320, the interior hasn't changed in 30 years (not exaggerating). Every time I get on one I think to myself, "This is what state-of-the art flying in 1987 must have been like, minus the smoking section of course". At least Delta is doing something about it on their fleet.

WOW, sexy plane, indeed!

Looks like you can have any color you want as long as it's blue....

The cabin does look good.

Yes, it all sounds so nice, but has anyone actually traveled in Y of late on new A320s or Delta's refurbed ones? Most acft off the line now sport the wonderful Airbus Space Saver toilets with 2 hideously thin toilets beside the galley. So in addition to 6 extra seats, you get a row that is almost in the galley, a shrunken galley where the crews have nowhere to go, line-ups in the galley beside the crews and food (such as it is now) and of course, toilets that are incredibly cramped. You have an a great blog Lucky, but sometimes you need to walk to the back or ask the crews how the new configuration is going over with staff and customers. The answer is terrible. Especially now with longer flights with the NEO and you'll see a high % of pax having to use the facilities so does it work? It doesn't. People standing in the galley holding in gas while waiting to go to the loo. Ugh! Restaurants can't place toilets in the middle of the kitchen, so why can airlines? Where are any regulatory bodies on this matter? It's simply disgusting and new bins and lighting can't mask the experience. Meanwhile, the media reprint the Airbus sales brouchures and never bother asking a couple questions.

I'd rather have wider armrests. Any man 6' tall or more can't avoid touching shoulders with the next seat over if that person is an adult male.

Not sure I understand how those overhead bins will have more space than the current Sky Interior bins? Hard to see from the renderings where all the additional space comes from or how bags would fit vertically... I get the Boeing design because they actually go up into previously blocked fuselage curvature/ceiling space. These don't look far off from current design.

With all of the overhead bin space and lighting which lends to such an open feel, this is the perfect plane on which to introduce 4-4 narrowbody seating.
