Hello,
I’ve got a somewhat technical question regarding the A321.
What’s the difference between the A321-111 and 211? Are there at least any visual differences? I was told that they have the same engine.
Thanks

Re: A321 Question
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airbus_A320_family#A320:
The A320 series has two variants, the A320-100 and A320-200. Only 21 A320-100s were produced. These aircraft, the first to be manufactured, were delivered to Air Inter – later acquired by Air France – and British Airways as a result of an order from British Caledonian made prior to its acquisition.
The primary differences with the -100 were the -200's wingtip fences and increased fuel capacity, providing increased range.

Re: A321 Question
This is about the A321, not the A320.
The -100 has substantially less range than the -200 due to lighter weights, less powerful engines and less fuel capacity. Only about 90 were built.

The last three digits are coded as follows:
- First digit. Version.
- Second digit. Engine manufacturer.
- Third digit. Engine version.
This coding is used for all Airbus except A300 and A310.
