airBaltic participates in an aircraft manufacturer Airbus’ demonstration tour in Asia, showcasing its latest A220-300aircraft to customers, international media, and other guests. During the tour, airBaltic’s A220-300 will visit a total of 4 destinations in the region. Thus far, airBaltic has carried more than 11 600 000 passengers on the Airbus A220-300 aircraft. Airbus A220-300shave completed nearly 133 000 flights and flown over 289 000 block hours.Since May 2020, airBaltic operates all its flights with a single aircraft type – Airbus A220-300, thus minimizing the complexity and benefiting from the additional efficiency provided by the aircraft. The airline’s fleet now consists of 41 A220-300 with six more planned to join by the end of this year.  

Airbus A220-300 has performed beyond the company’s expectations, delivering better overall performance, fuel efficiency, and convenience for both passengers and staff. This aircraft offers an excellent flying experience with such benefits for passengers as wider seats, larger windows, more hand luggage space in the cabin, improved lavatories, and much more.

In addition, the aircraft is also considerably quieter – with a four times smaller noise footprint. Moreover, at the moment, it is the greenest commercial aircraft in the world as it is the first aircraft to have a transparent declaration of the life-cycle environmental impact, helping to reduce CO2 and NOX emissions by 20% and 50% respectively.
