(Reuters) – Airbus Chief Executive Guillaume Faury hinted on Tuesday at the launch of a more powerful new A321 jet, saying the planemaker’s current A321LR was the world’s longest-range single-aisle jet “for the moment.”

Industry sources have said Airbus is already marketing a longer-range version called “A321XLR,” with an official announcement expected at next month’s Paris Airshow.
