Skander Kamoun — Mon, 28 Sep 2020 09:31:15 +0000

Paris, September 24th – At a time when airlines are progressively retiring their larger aircraft, arguably more difficult to fill, the industry is shifting focus towards smaller airplanes. Last year, Air France announced they had chosen the Airbus A220 as the replacement solution for modernising part of their ageing short and medium-haul fleet. Recently, Air Baltic also declared it was eyeing an A220-only fleet in a near future. These announcements come as a confirmation of the growing interest for the former Bombardier CSeries, today known as the Airbus A220. Strategic positioning, reception among airlines, passenger experience: Flight-Report dives into the...

Paris, June 24th – “We will come back smaller“. This is probably one the most common assertions we have been hearing from airlines CEOs over the past weeks. But how small will smaller actually be? Low visibility and daily changes in the global spread of Covid19 make it quite difficult to navigate through this question. Data on early signs of recovery in Europe, however, bring some material for reflection. The scope of this analysis has been limited to the 3 main diversified airline groups in Europe, holding both legacy and low-cost operations, as well as medium and long-haul flights. Week...
