Airbus sees it that way too, Airbus has stopped marketing the A319 and is pushing the A223 instead. DL's just finished a very large upgrade on its A319s tho, with tvs at every seat, 2Ku fast wifi, etc. They will be around for quite a while yet

Yup - the oldest bird in the A319 fleet is not even 20 years old yet. DL's investor day indicated that they want to deploy the A220s to the competitive (coastal) markets.

Do these or the A319s have the same capability of the -700s? IIRC, the -700s are used for landing on short runways.

Also they aren't a small sub-fleet. Basically a 738 or 739 but shorter.
but no. The Delta 319s aren't even close (several thousand pounds of thrust under powered) and the 223 will have the same issue.
the 221 is a pocket rocket, or can be. Currently Delta isn't taking them as such though.

Given that the 319s and the 737-7s have 12 F seats, I'd bet the A223 will also have a three row F cabin. I'd hope that they might have a fourth row of C+, though. If the A221 really has 32" pitch in regular Y, there isn't that much need for C+ (free booze isn't of much interest personally, and I find the snack basket really ho hum), but we'll see how they pitch the bigger sibling's main cabin.

Indeed the A221 is a rocket! But there is no need for DL to fly them like that, and engine life is eaten most by full power takeoffs, so derating makes sense as there are few DL airports with the 'hot and high' needs of the 737-7.
What will be cool is that both A220s can do transcon. Don't know if DL is looking at some novel nonstops at LAX, SEA or NYC, but they could.

Per Leeham News "Runway takeoff length for CS100 is 4,800 ft at sea level at a full load and 6,200 ft for CS300."

and correct on the engines. Delta is going with a de-rated model, IIRC 21,000lbs of thrust.

Your premise is wrong. DL is using these to win in very competitive routes. They are not to replace existing planes. Look at the cities these will serve: Dallas, Houston, Chicago, NYC, Boston. The list speaks for itself, they are major competitor hubs and highly competitive markets.

Just read at Airways that Delta may have to delay the entry into service of the A220. It seems that with the government shutdown many FAA inspectors have been furloughed and Delta is having a hard time getting the ones remaining to cover the route proving flights necessary for the certification of a new type into their fleet. And the beat goes on...

It seems that with the government shutdown many FAA inspectors have been furloughed and Delta is having a hard time getting the ones remaining to cover the route proving flights' necessary for the certification of a new type into their fleet. And the beat goes on...
Sources tell Airways that even though the airline has taken delivery of four A220s, the lack of FAA inspectors available to sign off the airline’s 100-hour flight proving runs might delay the aircraft’s EIS.
“During proving run flights, the operator must comply with all applicable FAA regulations. These may include flight and duty time, rest times,” sources tell Airways.
Current FAA inspectors have been furloughed because of the government shut down, therefore reducing the number of active inspectors to meet Delta’s proving run schedules. As a result, the A220’s EIS is very much at risk.
Reportedly, Delta might have drafted a waiver request asking the FAA to reduce the proving run hours. However, such waivers had never been approved before, so the likelihood of succeeding is very low.
