We start with the release of the Airbus A320ceo from LatinVFR. It's available on the official marketplace for $29.49.

It's worth mentioning that this is not a study-level aircraft, but a modification with added features of the systems of the default Airbus A320neo on top of a new model and flight deck. While it's not as advanced as other add-ons, it has the advantage that it's compatible with both Xbox and PC. 

Here's what you get in the package:

  • Detailed aircraft interior matching each airline, with night lighting , Animated passengers, animated cabin crew in all aircraft increasing the immersion while you fly.
  • Systems and flight deck are built on the default Asobo A320neo and modified to implement additional systems such as ECAM takeoff and landing memos and other ECAM messages and pages ENG, BLEED, PRESS, ELEC, HYD, APU, COND, DOOR, WHEEL, F-CTL pages, increasing the overall functionality of the aircraft flight deck.
  • Cockpit ambience modified for all 80+ operators, having the flight deck different for each specific aircraft and specific aircraft registration..
  • Tablet that controls payload, fuel, animated passengers, cabin lights, ground service equipment (stairs etc). Weather information, Metar and normal checklists.
  • Different sets of flight decks. Older types (non SL) with a standby DDRMI and more worn. Newer types on SL aircraft with a newer feel.
  • Wing flex
  • Customized ground service equipment such as stairs, air conditioner, ground power unit, baggage loaders etc, on demand whilst on the ground with the tablet.

Another release comes from SNJ Sim, and it's  Fukuoka International Airport (RJFF) in Japan. 

It's currently available on Simmarket for $15.78 plus applicable VAT. With this add-on you get the following:

  • Detailed Fukuoka airport Scenery
