Trans American orders state-of-art Airbus A220
December 26, 2018
Trans American continues to firm its narrowbody fleet with the order of the state-of-the-art Airbus A220 aircraft, providing for added network flexibility with more fuel-efficient mainline aircraft.

Trans American has firmed 25 Airbus A220-300 aircraft orders, with 25 more options for both the A220-100 and A220-300. Our agreement with Airbus allows us to swap between the Airbus A220-100 and A220-300 order at any time.

This order is part of transAmerican's plan to expand our domestic operations, allowing more point-to-point routes to secondary markets and more destinations out of our mega-hub of Atlanta. The Airbus A220 will allow us to tap into unexplored markets where our Airbus A320 aircraft were too large to serve. "We are able to take advantage of the aircraft economics and fuel performance. This aircraft will probably be a major foundation to our domestic market" said President, Drake Palmer.

The aircraft will be powered by the Pratt & Whitney PW1500G engine.

We expect our first aircraft to arrive in Q1 2019.
