Azorra places 1st A220s

Leasing company Azorra Aviation has announced on 26 June 2023 that it has placed its first two of 22 A220s it has on order with Airbus. Both will be leased to Breeze Airways, and are scheduled for delivery early 2024.

The airline is planning to utilize the duo to accelerate the phase-out of its ERJ190/195s, which has been impacted by the delay of new A220s. Breeze has ordered a total of 80 A220s directly with Airbus, and has so far taken delivery of fourteen of them. It also operates ten ERJ190s, and seven ERJ195s.
