Originally the Bombardier C Series. When Boeing tried to kill it with tariffs, Airbus swooped in, slapped their name on it. Now it's the best small jet in the sky.
Fun fact
The A220 cabin is wider than a 737 despite being a smaller aircraft — passengers actually notice the difference.
How to spot one
Clean-sheet design, not a stretched regional. Wider cabin than E-Jets (3+2 seating). Formerly Bombardier CS100.
Crews call it
The Baby Bus
Sounds like
PW1521G geared turbofan — noticeably quiet with that distinctive PW geared-fan hum
