Quote: Yeah this looks like abandoning the lower end of the market (100 seaters) and replacing A320s with lower paying 220s.

This ain’t a E190 replacement, folks.
If they were just planning on having the replacement aircraft do exactly what the 190 was doing, they would have gone with the E195 E2. Less acquisition cost. Pilots, flight attendants, ramp, and maintenance would have required little training.

Getting these planes is a much more expensive endeavor than getting E2s.

This plane will be replacing some A320s for sure.

Yay🙄
