I am delighted that the A220s will replace the A318 which are so uncomfortable. I hope that AF chooses different seats. A220 is 2x3 per row as opposed to 3x3, so great for couples.
Do we know when delivery will start?

The A220 is a former CS Bombardier plane, so quite different from the A320 series from a pilot viewpoint.
I assume that AF would need pilots to be qualified on both types of planes to ease flexible scheduling (like to NCE). Am I silly?
