Air France readies for A220 delivery

Air France is continuing to renew its fleet. At the end of September, the airline will take delivery of the first of the 60 Airbus A220-300s it has ordered to replace its Airbus A318s and A319s on the short and medium-haul network. The first Airbus A220 designed for Air France recently left the Airbus paint shop in Mirabel, near Montreal. It sports the new Air France colours and notably features the winged seahorse, the airline’s historical symbol embodying its rich history, at the front of the fuselage. As it is made with lighter composite materials, the Airbus A220 uses 20% less fuel than previous generation aircraft, and has a 34% reduced noise footprint. It will play a decisive role in achieving Air France's sustainable development objectives, including a 50% reduction in CO2 emissions in absolute terms on the domestic network from Paris Orly and on inter-regional routes by 2024, and a 50% reduction in CO2 emissions per passenger/km by 2030. Before joining Paris to carry Air France customers, the aircraft will undergo a series of ground and in-flight tests. On its arrival, it will be used for more than a month to train the airline's flight crews, some of whom began the so-called "type rating" process last summer. As with every new type of aircraft entering the fleet, the company has set up two core groups, one made up of pilots and the other of flight attendants. These already qualified crew members will then be responsible for training their colleagues within the framework of in-house programmes validated by the authorities. Close to 700 Air France pilots will eventually be qualified on this aircraft. Two A220 door models have been installed at the Air France Crew Academy at Paray Vieille-Poste, near Paris Orly, to train some 2.500 flight attendants. The Air France Airbus A220 will be able to welcome 148 passengers in a 3-2 cabin configuration. Each seat will be equipped with type A and type C USB ports and all passengers will enjoy Wi-Fi access from their personal devices.

Since they fly to more destinations in Arabia than their own home country, I would classify this as a Saudi airline with a Bosnian name. Their business plan was and remains bringing Arabs for their summer escape holidays to Bosnian. While links to major European capitols that are a stone's throw away remain wishful thinking. From the point of view of an average Bosnian, unless they are from the group that goes to do the haj, this airline is as useless as it gets.
