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.

Adria Airways HQ fails to sell

NEWS FLASH

The headquarters of Slovenia’s former national carrier Adria Airways has failed to sell as part of the company’s bankruptcy proceedings. Built in 2009, the four-story building features almost 4.400 square metres and includes offices, classrooms, parking and a warehouse. It is located next to Ljubljana Airport. The starting price for the building was set at 4.1 million euros, without tax, with interested buyers requested to immediately deposit 205.000 euros. Adria Airways’ bankruptcy administrator, Janez Pustatičnik, said it would have been surprising for the sale to have been successful on its first attempt, noting the building would be put up for sale again, with its starting price likely to be reduced by 10%. He added there was interest from a foreign investor. So far, the bankruptcy administrator has successfully sold Adria Airways’ Air Operator's Certificate for 45.000 euros, the Adria Airways Flight School for 7.500 euros and the Adria Airways brand name for 33.000 euros.
