airBaltic Receives 36th Airbus A220-300

Our Bureau - : May 31, 2022 - : 2:18 am

Latvian airline airBaltic recently welcomed its 36th Airbus A220-300 jet.

This is the fourth of eight planned A220-300 aircraft deliveries for airBaltic this year and is part of the 50 A220-300 that airBaltic has ordered. In addition, airBaltic holds 30 options and purchase rights for the same aircraft type.

Thus far, airBaltic has carried nearly 8 000 000 passengers on the A220-300 aircraft. A220-300’s have completed more than 92 000 flights and flown over 200 000 block hours. Since May 2020, airBaltic operates all its flights with the same type.

The Airbus A220-300 has a high-quality air filtering system equipped with High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) type filter that provides the best level of filtration currently available for recirculated cabin air from the very beginning of boarding, during entire flight and until all passengers have left the aircraft. The quality of cabin air is carefully controlled and is recirculated with ventilation rates that provide a total change of air 20-30 times per hour.

In addition, the new aircraft is also considerably quieter – with a four times smaller noise footprint. It is the first aircraft to have a transparent declaration of the life-cycle environmental impact, helping to reduce CO2 and NOX emissions by 20% and 50% respectively.
