In all these cases the stretched version came much after the short one, thus airlines had already bought the original length one and wouldn't wait for the stretch or more likely bought the short one, then requested a stretch for the end of the run.
I think the A319neo has a very low priority with Airbus. The A319neo takes up the same production-slot as an A321neo, but is sold for considerably less.
The A319's popularity has been declining for over a decade now. I am surprised Airbus even bothered to re-engine it. Keep in mind, EasyJet's fleet used to be a319 in majority. They started to upgrade and increase their A320 numbers over a decade ago. This was already a sign that the A319 was to small for today's capacity requirements. It's the same with the 737. It started out well small and now look at it. It's come to a point where boeing kinda has to get a new Project going because they physically can't stretch it any further. Keeping those trends in mind, it's not a surprise the A319neo is selling so slow / hardly at all.
It‘s always a question on how much commonality the variants have and therefore, hoe much additional costs you have by building that variant. If you already have the A320 NEO certified and the additional costs for certification of an A319NEO are very small, why not just build it? You don’t loose much but have another option that pressures the competition.
To fly some airport in Tibet and Chinese high elevation (altitude) airport. CAAC requires several options to manufacturer like high altitude landing systems, extra oxygen tanks and high trust engine options. Today, Airbus A319ceo(CFM56-5B7/3, V2527M-A5), A319neo and A330(Trent 772C-60) and Boeing 737-700(CFM56-7B26E) got certified for HEA operation in China. As of now, only A319neo ("brand new")is capable of HEA operation.
I like that we (in the 319) can climb to FL380 and FL390 to get over the WX versus the A321 where we’re stuck down at FL330 or lower usually due to weight.
Delta already went the route of the A220, but could see American and United going for the A319neo to replace their current A319ceo fleets in the next several years. Only so much up-gauging that they can do. Would make sense to have commonality with the large quantity of A321ceos and A321neos orders currently in their fleets and on order.
Less Buissnes (6 would be enough) more economy, a little bit more range (you cant even reach asia with this now) and i can see some sense in that. Right now i could only imagne some wird airline using it in more premium variant to conncect London City Airport with whole US as Premium Buissnes.
The short bus (A318) is a very special niche aircraft. It is analogous to the B737-500. It would be nice to see these converted to business class only aircraft for short haul flights. I know it'll never happen. Anyway, Allegiant can make these work in their business model if the price is right.
Allegiant is an interesting case…they have a lot of A319s but those and their A320s are all ceo models according to Wikipedia. They must not fly them as much per day so the fuel savings is less important, they flew MD-80s until recently. My experience with them is that they serve routes only a couple times a week. They do seem to be the ones looking for deals on planes, ordering a bunch of 737 MAX’s when everybody else was cancelling. I’m sure Boeing gave them a good deal! Some of those are MAX 7s, so it’s plausible they could switch to A319neo’s if Airbus can make a deal.
both the A318 LR & A319-100 are the most mismatched airframe in the commercial air travel market . . . originally thought up to cater to large cabin private jets in the air charter market & compete with Boeing's BBJ program . . . the A220-300 is the apt replacement for the A318 LR & A319-100 hands down . . .
It is still a bit early as there are quite a few A319ceo in use and perhaps those fleets have to get older before they are replaced. Airlines have been expanding and using the bigger frames for expansion. Air Tibet and other customers use the A319 for high elevation smallish airports. It is no bother for Airbus to produce one and one A319, all parts are the same as on a A320 and the shorter fuselage is produced on the manufacturing lines with the same tools. And I assume that Airbus does not care much if they sell an A220-300 or the A319 neo. The A319 has a range and payload advantage compared to the A220-300. I would say wait in watch.
Shortened versions usually sell much worse than a stretch, like the 747SP and the L-1011-500. The Embraer 135 and 140 only sold relatively well because of the scope clauses, and even there less than the 145.

Less popular than the the rest does not mean it is a bad option. For all we know it does way better than expected. Niche products are a thing and serve a specific purpose. Imagine they did NOT have it. That would mean that Tibet Airlines would go with an other company. And that could mean that that is just enough difference that the mother company goes away from Airbus as well.
It's only make sense for smaller cariers that needs just a few A319 size planes with majority of planes being an A320/A321. So few that adding another (better) type would cost too much. Even A320 if A220-500 would be placed into service is not gonna make too much sense further just becosue A220 is so much superior plane.
Is there a big price difference between the A319neo and the A320neo? Given the relatively small differences from a technical standpoint I assume there isn't.
What the market needs is an A322 (a stretch version of the A321.. with a 230-260 passenger airframe).. this would seal the deal for Airbus, for finally finding a true Middle Market Aircraft.. And Boeing would have no chance to respond with an equal program..! I can see Airbus thinking of this for the close future, as they are already maybe looking at stretching the A350-1000 (possibly A350-2000).. with Airbus having a simplified line of same family planes, it makes it easier to explore eventual variants..
Air travel is growing year-by-year, and the same routes end up requiring larger planes than they used to. The same reason A321neo is outselling A320neo by over 50% at the moment, while the situation was reversed for the previous generation A320 family. A319 was also cannibalised somewhat when Airbus aquired the A220 from Bombardier, so no wonder it's selling poorly.
In the United States and Canada there should be a need for A319neo for the Legacy carriers that has to fly out of hot and High Conditions Short runways examples JAC DEN ABQ SLC EYW🇺🇲 YYC🇨🇦.For AA/DL if they went A319-151Ns this would end up finishing off their old A319-111 A319-114s UA A319-151N or A319-171N finishing off the aging out A319-131s
I always wonder why Airbus doesn’t build XLR variants of A319 and A320 and market them as long haul all business class or business class heavy airplanes. Kind of like what BA did with the A318 with London City-JFK but be able to do it without the technical stop.
A319neo could have orders later as ACJ or airlines looking for an aircraft in this segment equipped with the CFM LEAP engine, which is not available on A220 and boeing 737 MAX 7 has not yet been certified.
The A319 neo is good aircraft as it can operate in high Altitude conditions with short runway. An Airlines that have A320 in its fleet can operate A319 neo rather than A220 because they have different type rating .
Though most airlines prefer A220, it looks like they'll have to settle for the A319neo. If I'm not mistaken, the A220 has been put out of production due to unprofitability. Mentour Pilot put out a video explaining the problems Airbus has had with their A220 project. I recently flew on an A220-100. I was impressed with its short takeoff distance. I think it got off the ground in less than 1/4 mile.
Does this mean that in the next generation A320, there won't be a A319 variant? Or will they still keep it since it is much more suitable for corporate jets and benefits from the commonality with the rest of the family?
Either you need a A320 series, and you can just buy a A320neo in stead... or you need a smaller aircraft. Then you buy a A220 that not only habe the -300 but also the -100 series for more optimal thin lines. Or even the E2 seried where the 195 model is only slightly smaller than the 319.. amd the 170 model significantly smaller. More over the A220 provide significantly better confort than the 319. Of cause, before the 319 become neo.. there was some advantages to it. They bassically all gone. A A320neo is bassically just better.
I believe the A319 will never reach 100 units delivered. Probably A320 would sell even better with a small stretch into a 'A320-300' with cabin space for up to 200 pax in LCC configuration. There is a quite big gap between the A320 and A321.
