A319neo vs 767-300ER
The 767-300ER leads, topping 5 of 7 compared metrics.
Cross-shopping the Airbus A319neo (introduced 2018) against the Boeing Commercial Airplanes 767-300ER (introduced 1988) is a common decision, and the two sit closer on paper than the badges suggest. Both are commercial, which makes them natural cross-shopping rivals. The clearest separation between them is cabin capacity, where the 767-300ER carries more passengers. We line the numbers up below, then translate them into the mission each aircraft actually wins.

A319neo vs 767-300ER: the key differences
- The 767-300ER delivers 70% more range (A319neo: 3,750 nm; 767-300ER: 6,385 nm).
- The A319neo delivers 6% more cruise speed (A319neo: 487 kt; 767-300ER: 459 kt).
- The 767-300ER delivers 119% more passenger capacity (A319neo: 160 seats; 767-300ER: 351 seats).
- The A319neo is the newer design (introduced 2018 versus 1988 for the 767-300ER), a gap of 30 years that usually shows up in avionics, cabin systems and fuel burn.
- The 767-300ER is the larger aircraft by maximum takeoff weight (412,775 lbs versus 166,449 lbs), which typically buys more cabin and payload at the cost of higher trip economics.
Which mission suits which aircraft
The 767-300ER is the stronger fit for nonstop ultra-long-haul routes — its 6,385 nm of range removes fuel stops on those legs. The A319neo, at 3,750 nm, is better matched to long-haul and transatlantic missions, where lower trip cost counts for more than outright reach. If most of your flying sits inside the A319neo's range, the 767-300ER's extra capability is range you pay to carry but rarely use.
Which should you choose?
On published specifications the 767-300ER leads on both range and cabin capacity, so it suits operators who want maximum mission flexibility from a single airframe. The A319neo can still be the smarter buy on acquisition cost, operating economics, runway performance, or current availability — the factors that rarely show up in a spec sheet. Our acquisition advisory team can model both against your actual mission profile before you commit.
