Didn't Virgin Atlantic receive the first A321neo?

You mean Virgin America?
Exact_Risk_1300@reddit
U don't know, I remember seeing "Virgin" in dark red on the tail of the aircraft, is Virgin Atlantic not what I'm thinking about???
Exact-Occasion-6204@reddit
They’ve never operated the A321neo.

I'm pretty sure i flew in the US on an A321neo long ago around 2017 or something

Not exactly the first A320neo, but the first Airbus A321neo delivered to Thai Airways, registered HS-TOA.
just_the_tip_o@reddit (OP)
Shit, the flight attendand lied to me then :(
bonnies_ranch@reddit
The first neo ist Lufthansa's D-AINA, an A320neo :)
BenjaminKohl@reddit
Actually the first neo is a prototype that still under airbus’ ownership
bonnies_ranch@reddit
Yeah should've clarified it being the first one delivered to airlines haha, knew I was gonna get called out on this!
BenjaminKohl@reddit
The first A320neo is about ten years old and the first 21neo is about nine years old. This Thai plane is only about 4 months old lol.

You should watch your step
Triumph807@reddit
Yeah stumbling around airplanes could turn into a mishap
Atonsis@reddit
Especially on the airstairs while boarding.
Dragonogard549@reddit
pretty sure you were boarding it entirely on purpose

That is specifically Thai’s first A321neo, not the first A321neo. The first A321neo to enter service was with Virgin America, and is now owned and operated by American Airlines after Alaska sold it off.

YellowAdventurous366@reddit
That’s the a320, first one Lufthansa, they we’re talking about a321.
unintelligble_speach@reddit
Oops! Tha ks for the clarification!
vyuniii@reddit
they were seemingly referring to the 320neo that lufthansa operates not the 321neo
