The aircraft is expected to be delivered to Breeze in the coming weeks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Breeze\u2019s A220-300 cabin is configured in a comfortable two-class 126 seat premium cabin layout comprising 36 business and 90 economy seats fitted with in-seat power and USB ports for all passengers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Breeze will offer superior single-aisle comfort on board its brand new A220&#8217;s, such as the widest seats, the largest windows and more overhead stowage space per passenger.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The A220\u2019s superior efficiency will support the new airline\u2019s business objectives to deliver a great travel experience to its passengers, with low fares and high flexibility. Breeze is expected to provide non-stop service between underserved routes across the U.S. at affordable fares &#8211; offering point-to-point flights from smaller secondary airports, bypassing hubs for shorter travel times.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Breeze started airline operations in May 2021. This first A220 is expected to enter service in Q2 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The A220 is the only aircraft purpose-built for the 100-150 seat market and brings together state-of-the-art aerodynamics, advanced materials and Pratt &amp; Whitney\u2019s latest-generation geared turbofan engines. With a range of up to 3,450 nm (6,390 km), the A220 gives airlines added operational flexibility. The A220 delivers up to 25% lower fuel burn and CO2 emissions per seat compared to previous generation aircraft, and 50% lower NOx emissions than industry standards. In addition, the aircraft noise footprint is reduced by 50% compared to previous generation aircraft &#8211; making the A220 a good neighbour around airports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of the end of September 2021, over 170 A220s have been delivered to 12 operators worldwide.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mobile, Alabama, USA, October 26, 2021 &#8211; Breeze Airways (Breeze)\u00a0unveiled its first of 80 A220-300 aircraft on order during a preview event at the Airbus A220 final assembly line in Mobile, Alabama.
