After 30 minutes of flight cruising at FL330 right engine began to compressor stall with multiple thumps and erratic engine indications. Right throttle was brought to idle and we ask for a lower altitude. All engine indications at idle were normal. Continued the remainder of the flight with right throttle at idle until beginning the approach. Elected to divert to ZZZ. Once on the approach; advanced right throttle and all indications were normal through the approach and landing.There were no casual factors. Followed SOP.This was a normal flight with no outside factors involved.
Flight from ZZZ2 to ZZZ3 was normal to FL 330 about 15min into cruise flight compressor stalls on right engine with 4 bangs. We reduced the throttle to idle and the ECAM went away. We kept the throttle at idle and descend to FL240 and diverted to ZZZ which was approximately 100 miles away and landed safely.[Caused by] Engine compressor stall[This was] a maintenance issue alone.
A319 flight crew reported an engine compressor stalls in cruise resulting in a diversion.
