Airbus has signed a purchase agreement with Azorra for twenty-two A-220 Family aircraft including twenty A-220/300s and two ACJ TwoTwenty aircraft. Azorra is a Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA, based aircraft lessor focused on executive, regional and mid-size (“crossover”) aircraft.

This purchase is the latest endorsement for the A-220 Family aircraft and reaffirms the strong market demand for Airbus’ newest single-aisle aircraft.

The A-220 is the aircraft purpose-built for the 100-150 seat market and with Pratt & Whitney’s latest-generation PW1500G geared turbofan engines. The model is a suitable airplane for regional as well as long distance routes.

The ACJ TwoTwenty is a new proposition to business aviation buyers. This fully completed aircraft is ideal for private and business jet users.

 As of the end of December 2021, the A-220 had accumulated 668 orders from 25 customers; to date, 13 airlines are operating around 190 planes on four continents.
