SINGAPORE, 18 December 2023: Australia\u2019s national carrier Qantas has taken delivery of its first new generation A220, becoming the 20th operator of the latest aircraft type. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aircraft is the first 29 A220s ordered by the Qantas Group for operation by QantasLink, their regional airline that services metropolitan and regional destinations across Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The A220 will gradually replace the existing 717 fleet at QantasLink. Flying twice as far, the A220 can connect any two points across Australia nonstop while bringing a significant 25% reduction in fuel consumption and carbon emissions compared to previous-generation aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a total of 137 seats, Qantas\u2019 A220s will be configured in a two-class layout, seating 10 passengers in business and 127 in economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Powered by the latest Pratt & Whitney GTF\u2122 engines, it can fly up to 3,450 nautical miles or 6,390 kilometres nonstop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As with all Airbus aircraft, the A220 can operate with up to 50% Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). Airbus aims for all its aircraft to be capable of operating with 100% SAF by 2030. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Airbus has received close to 850 orders from 30 customers for the A220, of which over 300 have been delivered worldwide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
