Some of this depends on where the A220s will be based and the number of A220s delivered in 2022. If you want to sleep in base, apply for the E190s. If you want a more traditional airline with multi-day trips and layovers, apply separately for the A220s. Everyone has been told the A220 operation would begin in the Spring but no definitive date yet that I have seen. With all of the hiring at the majors and LCCs, I am sure recent A220 new hires waiting for training are getting other offers if they have multiple applications out. Regardless, looking forward to hearing about the expansion plans using the A220s in the next few months…
Wishing everyone a great 2022!
