The A220 is a series of two narrow-body
airliners by Airbus Canada LP. Bombardier originally developed it and had two
years in service as the CSeries. The program was launched on 13 July 2008. The
smaller A220-100 (formerly CS100) made its maiden flight on 16 September 2013,
received an initial type certificate from Transport Canada on 18 December 2015,
and entered service on 15 July 2016 with launch operator Swiss Global Air
Lines. The longer A220-300 (formerly CS300) first flew on 27 February 2015, received
an initial type certificate on 11 July 2016, and entered service with airBaltic
on 14 December 2016.
In July 2018, the aircraft was rebranded as the
A220 after Airbus acquired a majority stake in the program through a joint
venture that became ACLP in June 2019. In August, a second A220 final assembly
line opened at the Airbus Mobile facility in Alabama, supplementing the main
facility in Mirabel, Quebec. In February 2020, Airbus increased its stake in
ACLP to 75% through Bombardier's exit, while Investissement Québec held the
remaining stake.
Powered by Pratt & Whitney PW1500G geared
turbofan engines under its wings, the twinjet features fly-by-wire flight
controls, a carbon composite wing, an aluminum-lithium fuselage, and optimized
aerodynamics for better fuel efficiency. The aircraft family offers maximum
take-off weights from 63.1 to 70.9 t (139,000 to 156,000 lb), and cover a
3,450–3,600 nmi (6,390–6,670 km; 3,970–4,140 mi) range. Both launch operators
recorded better-than-expected fuel burn and dispatch reliability and positive
feedback from passengers and crew.
As of March 2024, the global A220 fleet
had completed more than 1.1 million flights over 1.9 million block hours
without accidents.
The 35 m (115 ft) long A220-100 seats 108 to
133, while the 38.7 m (127 ft) long A220-300 seats 130 to 160. The ACJ
TwoTwenty is the business jet version of the A220-100, launched in late 2020.
The A220 family complements the A319neo in the Airbus range and competes with
B737 MAX 7 and the smaller four-abreast E195-E2 and E190-E2. As of June 2024,
902 A220s had been ordered, of which 342 had been delivered, and all were in
commercial service with 21 operators. Delta Air Lines is the largest operator,
with 71 aircraft in its fleet.
