Australian airline Qantas announced an additional order for nine A220-300s, bringing its order book for this single-aisle aircraft type to 29 aircraft.
The A220 was originally selected by Qantas as part of a major fleet replacement program announced in May 2022, which also included orders for the A321XLR and A350-1000.
Qantas will take delivery of its first A220 later this year and will use it primarily on its extensive domestic route network.
