The A220-500 will be a workhorse and no doubt we see it replace a lot of our current A320ceo capacity.
The most economical variant of any given airframe is the one that holds the most pax. A321 vs A319, A220-500 vs A220-100
If Spirit takes a A319NEO before the merger, maybe. But there is NO way JB takes a A319NEO if none are in the combined fleet.
