-A321 pay is at A320 rate even though it carries same pax as 757. New A321neo will be able to do Europe at narrow body rates.
-5 YEARS duration which puts us well into 2020+ before a contract that doesn't have bk work rules.
I think you will find the A321 NEO is not much of a transatlantic aircraft. Airbus is however working on a longer range version that won't be out until 2019 or later. It will have the range of the 757 if operated off long runways.
