It was in print by someone who should be somewhat in the know. His name was Ed Bastion. He said current dispatch reliability was 95% on the aircraft and it needs to get up to better than 99%.
The A220-100, Delta’s newest plane, has been having some operational problems since starting flights in February, Bastian said. The airline completes more than 95% of A220 flights, he said, a measure of how often its avoids cancellations. But Delta, which prides itself on reliability, wants to get that number to 99%.
