Airbus has reached a symbolic milestone for the Airbus A220 program: 500 deliveries.
Airbus has delivered 501 A220 aircraft as of March 2026, marking a major program milestone.
KEY POINTS
- Embraer’s E2 family outsold the A220 three-to-one in 2025, intensifying competition in the segment.
- Nearly 20% of A220s were grounded due to Pratt & Whitney engine issues by late 2025.
- Airbus aims to ramp A220 production to 13 aircraft per month by 2028, but progress is slower than planned.
- Egyptair and Air Austral have exited the A220 fleet due to persistent engine reliability problems.
