Airbus A220

The FAA’s phased upgrade aligns with voluntary delays put in place by wireless companies.

Expansion to existing CAMO services now include Boeing 737 MAX, 787 and Airbus A220 aircraft.

Designing the stretched A220 dubbed the -500 is not as simple a task for Airbus as one might think.

Delta placed its first order for what was eventually to become the A220 in 2016.

Staffing and supply chain issues have been constraints, but the startup airline is benefiting from major carriers’ shift away from regional flying.

Airbus CEO Guillaume Faury said the supply chain issues were the key reason for Airbus’ substantial delivery shortfall.

The airline will operate 95 transborder routes during next year’s summer season.

Five transcontinental services are among the US carrier’s eight domestic additions, one of which will become the farthest route in its network.

A flight-deck design quirk is causing Airbus A220 pilots to inadvertently engage the autopilot instead of the auto throttle.

By February 2023, the airline will serve five destinations nonstop from PHX.

The startup will be the only carrier flying the transcontinental route.

The airline is opening 12 new routes, including launching flights to two new cities.

The new routes from Halifax and Vancouver come two months after the airlines announced plans to align transborder networks and share revenue on Canada-US flights.

The Utah-based airline is adding eight new destinations from the Routes World 2022 host city.

Up to eight Airbus A220s will be stationed at the airport and the carrier hopes to be flying in excess of 20 routes from the base by 2027.

The airline is already operating to Tenerife in Spain’s Canary Islands.

The proposal is part of a plan to grow capacity through more flexibility rather than building new infrastructure.

The carrier will begin flights to Marrakesh in the fourth quarter.

CEO Le Hong Ha also lays out plans for India at Routes Asia 2022.

The startup is marking its one-year anniversary.

Despite being affected by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, SVP of network Wolfgang Reuss believes airBaltic is on track to top 3 million passenger this year.

Being selected for a new-generation flight management system (FMS) on the Airbus A320, A330 and A350 is consolidating Thales’ position in the avionics market versus Collins Aerospace, GE Aviation and Honeywell.

Qantas has confirmed a much-delayed order for the Airbus A350-1000s it will use for its Project Sunrise ultra-long-range flights; it has also finalized orders for Airbus narrowbodies to replace its domestic fleet.

The startup will operate the smallest aircraft flying US transcontinental routes.

The carrier is currently operating a network focused on short-haul routes in the eastern half of the US.
