The Boeing 757 is the most stunning subsonic narrowbody aircraft ever designed. It excels at any mission.
I ask you to name a single time that an A321 on a domestic run has been forced to make a fuel stop, at any time of year.
From a passenger comfort standpoint, the A321 wins hands down. Wider seats, wider cabin, quieter engines. No usable 2L door, but I'm willing to tolerate that.
The older 757 configurations were generally great, but now? It might as well be a 739.
