  1. I'm on the A220 flight from BOS to SJC on May 4, 2022! I've done a Delta A220-300 flight from DFW to SLC in the past and it's a lovely airplane! Very quiet, comfortable, HUGE windows and, on their model at least, a window in the starboard-side aft lav! "Loo with a view!"

  2. It's a freakin' LOVELY little hot rod!

  3. I'm very fond of those older 757 hot rods and the Northern Pacific's masking and overall livery are very attractive!

  4. I wonder what would be considered a suitable candidate to replace the 757's. It goes without saying that even an Airbus manufactured (well, "completed") in Mobile, Alabama would still be considered "foreign." Personal opinion, but I have my doubts about Boeing's ability to bring a narrow-body modern equivalent to fruition in a timely fashion.

  5.  @jrwxtx  BOS-SJC's a LOT longer flight than DFW-SLC. BOS-SJC's over six hours, as opposed to less than three DFW-SLC

  6. ABQ here. Regionals all the way! Hoping that JetBlue route includes their A220's!

  7. ABQ here! Ageed! Only way to get an A220 flight for me was to travel to DFW (not a bad place to be, actually! Now, if it was DEN, I wouldn't have gone!)

  8. I understand AirAsia X plans to retire their A330's and replace them with these. I understand the economy advantage, but, unless fares are considerably lower, no thanks!

  9. Good move! Looks like the order book's full, so good timing as well!

  10. Was on the inaugural A220 BOS-SJC flight on May 4, 2022. I love the 220, having flown Delta's in the past. JB's is no different, however, there is/was no "Mint" Service, so was in an Extra Space seat. Again, great airplane, even for 6+ hours, but absolutely the laziest, surliest cabin crew ever! Won't be doing JetBlue in the future.
