IMHO no way will an A321 be able to operate with a full load to any economic destination, eg PMI, IBZ, ALC or further afield. The runway surface improvements appear to only relate to grooving in order to faciltate draining thereby increasing the chances of it being reported damp/damp/damp or dry/dry/dry. If its reported as wet/wet/wet or worse, perfomance limiting crtieria will still apply.
