[@blakewall8590]

Love seeing all the positive comments about this A/C. I work at the airbus final assembly line in mobile, al, installing wings on these aircraft for 3 1/2 years! Great to see so much respect for these. Gives us more sense of pride for what we do!

i have flown on delta's a220-100 twice, love it.

[@seagullsbtn]

Got an opportunity to book flights on a Delta A220. Hoping they won’t change the plane…This is one of those designs that seems fundamentally right from day one.

[@Sacto1654]

A major advantage of the A220 (like the A320neo) are the super-quiet jet engines. With much lower noise levels, the A220 can operate more often out of noise-restricted airports.

[@dy7296]

They have the same engine. Just different ratings.

[@jace1113]

The A320neo is quiet too. Did you mean A320ceo?

[@vipstylerida]

i usually can tell when a A220 engines spools up when starting it makes that Whale sound..

[@kevins6114]

What is an example of an airport that the 220 can operate out of that other aircraft can’t?

[@JamesBond-jy8ti]

This was the model Boeing was affraid about before it got to Airbus......

Great video review of Delta’s Airbus A220. I’m a flight attendant with Delta and fly this airplane frequently because it’s such a nice experience to work on. Very modern aircraft with lots of premium amenities to enjoy during the flight.

Ummm, remember seeing a tarp with funnel attached to catch leaking ceiling in Terminal D.

[@dianeschroeder3980]

David, I was so glad to see that you went and got a proper breakfast at the lounge before you stepped onto that airplane because I knew you were not going to get anything that was edible on the plane. All the US airlines, especially Delta, is known for their boxed food which is like dog food, during Covid. Thanks for this great trip report!❤️👍✈️

[@Naris17]

I'm genuinely curious what kind of bag you use to carry on every trip. I'm amazed it's survived so long and would love to possibly even buy one like it.

[@mosulman7773]

I flew it from Geneva to Frankfurt on an Airbus 220. Economy was tighter than I’ve ever before. Plus it had new slim seats to squeeze in even more people.

[@steven63886]

Great video! I went to this airport (LGA) at August 18 2021 and it was so fun there! I remember going on a delta flight 433 and 2080! I also remember being on a A330! I love your videos! Keep it up!!!

[@n_e0]

I’ve yet to fly an A220, but I’ve fallen in love with E-Jets. It’s a shame they’re relegated to regional airlines (while on mainline routes). Both planes show that smaller can be better.

[@tts2327]

Your channel is amazing, when we come to tripreporting.

[@joseleonriv]

In my opinion, of all the USA airlines, Delta is the best so far. Its service it's incredible and the airplanes are modern.

[@rebeccafridaylover]

Delta generally have older planes! But they keep it VERY well hidden.

[@joseleonriv]

@@rebeccafridaylover yes, I recently traveled on a Boeing 757 and Boeing 767, and it feels like they are the newest airplanes

[@thatdudekyan]

Personally, I believe JetBlue is the best US airline, cheap, good service and no real incidents, as well as hundreds of international destinations, including a fleet of only new airlines such as the 220, 32N and 321LR

[@joseleonriv]

@@thatdudekyan ya I haven’t tried JetBlue yet. My mom has and she told me that was a good airline, the only bad thing is that on a 6 hour flight they only gave her a cup of coffee and chips, and I think it’s not enough. I traveled with Delta and on a 4 hour flight they gave us 2 services: first a sandwich and second some snacks.

[@joseleonriv]

Fantastic. Take off very smooth. And most importantly the noisy level is low. I personally prefer Airbus than Boeing.

Intreething fact: all the small family of airbus(a320neo and the 220s) are powered by the American engines P&W and the international engines were Genral electric and is include there( The international one is also the most common on the 380 do that is very quiet)

[@sergiolaurencio7534]

Also another interesting fact: the RR of the 787 use to be more quiet than the GE, but we're the less sell on do to its problem and advante that the GE Genx have)

At 6:05. Those are not first class seats. Delta needs to take lessons from other airlines when designing first class seating.

[@mohammadamin9388]

On time

[@athommen1]

It's the second tip report I'm watching about the A220-100 and its "First Class". For me it's more a "Business Class" seating and not too much of a "First". Maybe it's because I'm used to Transcontinental First Class and not Domestic flights. I just had a look at domestic flights on Swiss (Europe) and there's no "First Class" but "Business Class" for 3 times the price of a "Economy" (coach) seat. Anyways, great video, thanks for your time and sharing your experience with us!

[@davidhoffman1278]

It looks to have slightly narrower seating than the first class on a B737 or A320. You get 2 individual armrests per seat, so I like that.

[@bcshelby4926]

...looking to fly on one next summer (on Delta) non stop between SEA and MKE (Comfort class) . I keep hearing lots of good things about the 220 and even though slightly smaller than a 737 it is more comfortable and quieter. Love those big windows as well. I live in Portland but it's only a 3 hour train trip to south Seattle (there is a station by SeaTac with a shuttle) and even with the rail fare (I get a senior rate) it's cheaper than flying straight out of Portland and having to connect somewhere (one trip had me going all the way to Atlanta then up to Milwaukee) given how fares today are based on market popularity rather than miles flown. it's actually about 30 - 35$ cheaper to fly out of Seattle to LA than from Portland even though we are about 150 miles closer. I still miss Northwest. Often got a straight through flight with just as stop in MSP and no change of plane (and usually a 757).

[@jjohn713]

Recently learned that a First Class ticket alone does not get you Lounge access with Delta. I was not happy at the time, but yet, ANA gave me United lounge access in Houston with an Economy ticket. Some airlines are awesome with making passengers happy and some just are meh.

In my experience of the Delta A-220 from DFW to Detroit, it wasn’t all that quiet of a plane 😅 From about pushback from the gate all through taxiing and up until take off, there was an incessant and quite distracting grinding noise filling the cabin. I spoke with the pilot upon landing (who very graciously showed me the cockpit which was super cool!) and he said that was due to the electric brakes or something like that… Anyone else have a similar experience?

The upgrade of CRJ 900 next Gen is also very suitable now with changes to overhead bins and main cabin galley. Thank you once again and keep climbing ✈️

They may be quieter externally but what about cabin noise. I flew a Delta A220-100 from DFW to SLC in July of 2020 and was disappointed in what was higher cabin noise than I expected on a brand new plane. But it’s good looks make it a sweet ride nonetheless.
