American Airlines is the sole operator of the Airbus A319-115 variant in the United States, part of their large fleet of 984 aircraft including various Boeing and Airbus models. As of February 2025, out of the 1,272 Airbus A319s flying globally with 87 operators, only American Airlines operates the A319-115 variant. This specific model is noted for its sharklets and inflight entertainment features.
American Airlines has 32 of these A319-115 aircraft, with 31 in operation. The aircraft's first delivery was in 2013, and it was completed by 2015. The plane accommodates 128 passengers across three classes: First Class with eight seats, Main Cabin Extra with 24 seats, and the Main Cabin with 96 seats. Fliers have enjoyed seatback entertainment on these aircraft, making the model popular on routes across the Midwest, East Coast, Caribbean, and South America.
American Airlines' fleet renewal program originally included the A319-115s equipped with seatback screens. However, the airline has stated that seat-back entertainment is no longer a priority for their short-haul narrowbody fleet, opting instead for personal device entertainment, available free on most flights. Additionally, passengers can access Apple TV originals and lifestyle content like Skillshare and Matador Network.
