On 23 January 2018, Icelandic long-haul low-cost airline WOW Air used an Airbus A321neo (TF-SKY) for a flight from Reykjavik to Los Angeles instead of one of its regular Airbus A330s (TF-WOW – TF-GAY or TF-LUV) on that route.
The flight on this single-aisle aircraft took 8 hours and 40 minutes making it the longest commercial flight ever performed by an Airbus A321neo. 220 economy class seats with a seat pitch of 30-31 inches and a width of 17 inches, but a rumour online is going that the flight to LA only carried around 40 passengers.
What is your longest single-aisle flight ? Comment below this article 😉
8 hr 15 min from Los Angeles to Reykjavik on the A321neo. Not much help from a tailwind. https://t.co/FS7ANMB8oZ pic.twitter.com/rgt40lW8N5

I’m sure it must be possible to find B757 flights that were longer than that.
My longest narrow-body flight was SNN-JFK with A318 flight time 7hrs 00min.
(very strong headwind)
