Herndon, USA\/Mirabel, Canada – 13 July 2023 \u2013 Under its current agreement, Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL<\/a>) has disclosed an order for 12 additional A220-300 aircraft, bringing the airline\u2019s total firm order for A220’s to 131 aircraft – 45 A220-100’s and 86 A220-300’s. Throughout the years, Delta has reordered the A220 five times and is today the largest A220 customer and operator in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to its positive cabin experience, the aircraft plays an important role in helping decrease airline operating costs and environmental impact. Offering 25% lower fuel burn and CO2<\/sub> emissions per seat compared to previous generation aircraft, the A220 is the only aircraft purpose-built for the 100-150 seat market.  Combining state-of-the-art aerodynamics, advanced materials and Pratt & Whitney\u2019s latest-generation GTF\u2122 engines, the A220 brings customers a 50% reduced noise footprint and around 50% lower NOx emissions than industry standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Delta took delivery of its first Airbus A220 in October 2018, and was the first U.S. carrier to operate the aircraft type. Delta currently operates a fleet of 433 Airbus aircraft, including 61 A220 aircraft, 280 A320 Family aircraft, 64 A330’s and 28 A350-900 aircraft.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
