The Airbus A220 was initially called the Bombardier CSeries. The first variant, the CS100 (now the A220-100), entered service in July 2016, followed by the CS300 (now the A220-300) in December 2016. Eight years later, 19 airlines (along with governments, bizjet operators, etc.) fly the A220, with 349 examples in use. However, EgyptAir’s subfleet is stored and awaiting disposal. The most recent operator was Croatia Airlines, whose first A220-300 entered service on August 6, 2024. It followed QantasLink’s first A220-300 revenue flight on March 1, 2024.
