Delta’s Full List Of Airbus A220 Routes – Two Plane Layouts

Delta is continuing to take deliveries of its brand new Airbus A220 planes — and they’re headed all over the country. Last year, Delta expanded their order for the A220 aircraft. Delta ordered a total of 95 Airbus A220 aircraft. This includes 45 A220-100s, and 50 A220-300s. These aircraft are quickly becoming a staple in Delta’s fleet. The A220 is replacing less fuel efficient regional and smaller narrowbody planes. So her at PointMe we wanted to share the latest Delta a220 routes with our readers and fans of this new plane.

Delta had its first scheduled transcontinental route with the A220 with a once daily service between Atlanta and Seattle. That route began on June 8, 2020. Since then, we have seen a huge expansion of the routes offered by my favorite US carrier.

As Delta takes delivery of more of these planes, it’s likely there will be routes that are missed from the list below. However, Delta makes it easy to see what plane you are on — they even have a specific designation called “new aircraft” in the booking process.

“New aircraft” label means this flight is flown by an A220

Delta’s Airbus A220 Features

The A220 is a customer-friendly aircraft. We’re talking gate-to-gate Wi-Fi, some of the widest economy seats around, and even a window in the spacious lavatory. Nope, no contorting to use the bathroom here.

Delta’s version of the A220 has a total of 109 seats, including 12 first class seats, 15 Comfort+ seats, and 82 economy seats. It features seatback entertainment at every seat and high-speed Gogo 2Ku Wi-Fi. Seats in economy are an impressive 18.6″ wide, making them the widest economy seats of any narrowbody.

Delta Now Flies the Airbus A220-100 & A220-300 Variant

Delta’s Two Airbus A220 Aircraft

When we look at Delta’s fleet of the new A220, the airline operates both a A220-100 and the A220-300 aircrafts. What differences will flyers experience between the A220-100 and A220-300? The airplanes have identical flight ranges (2,415 miles, 3887 km,) the big variable is passenger capacity.

There are 109 seats on the Delta A220-100, and 130 seats on the A220-300 aircraft.

Since the pandemic, Delta has been aggressively replacing its fleet of Boeing 717’s. There are approximately 45 left in active service as of this post. All of Delta’s B717’s are scheduled to be retired by 2025.

Delta hopes to continue adding A220’s to its fleet. In addition, Delta has signed an agreement to take delivery of up to 100 Airbus A321neo aircraft. Those deliveries should begin (and put into service) beginning in 2022.

Delta Will Soon Have Domestic A220 Competition

Delta better enjoy its exclusivity with the A220 as long as it can; JetBlue has ordered the aircraft, upping its initial order by another 10 aircraft at the recent Paris Air Show. According to airlineroutes “Jet Blue has firmed up an order for an additional ten A220-300 aircraft from existing options. This follows an initial order for 60 A220 aircraft – announced in July 2018 – will be phased in as replacements for the airline’s existing fleet of 60 Embraer E190 aircraft.”

As Delta continues to take delivery of the A220, there will be even more new routes that be flown on this fantastic plane. While this list includes the routes where an A220 will fly, not all flights are operated by this plane so it’s important to pay attention to the specific aircraft when booking. Also, aircraft swaps are always possible.

All of these flights above are now bookable so if you wanted the chance to try the new bird, get going. We’ll try to continuously update this list as new routes with the A220 are announced.
