“The A220-300 offers efficient performance and flexibility,” said Kristen Bojko, Vice President of Fleet. “The continuing expansion of Delta’s A220 family is an integral investment in the future of sustainable aviation.”
The A220-300 is powered by Pratt & Whitney latest-generation geared turbofan GTF™ engines, which allow the fan and turbine to spin at optimal speeds for fuel efficiency, delivering a step change in fuel efficiency for its class. In addition to reinforcing Delta’s investments in sustainability, Delta’s expanding A220 fleet complements Delta’s fuel-efficient A321neo fleet.
The next-gen A220-300 also provides a best-in-class customer experience. The 130-seat aircraft offers an elevated in-flight experience, serving domestic customers traveling to and from Delta’s coastal hubs. Comfortable and quiet, the narrowbody features 12 First Class, 30 Delta Comfort+ and 88 Main Cabin seats.
Delta took delivery of its first Airbus A220 in October 2018 and was the first U.S. carrier to operate the aircraft type. The largest A220 operator in the world, Delta currently has 16 A220-300s in its fleet. In addition, Delta currently operates a fleet of 45 109-seat A220-100 aircraft.
