Upon entry into service, Iraqi Airways will become one of the first airlines to operate the A220 in the Middle East region.
Iraqi Airways’ A220-300 features a modern and highly comfortable dual-class cabin that seats 132 passengers; 12 in business class and 120 in economy class. The aircraft will play an integral part in Iraqi Airways' fleet renewal and modernization plan.
The A220 is an aircraft purpose-built for the 100-150 seat market and brings together state-of-the-art aerodynamics, advanced materials, and Pratt & Whitney’s latest-generation PW1500G geared turbofan engines.
Featuring a 50% reduced noise footprint and up to 25% lower fuel burn per seat compared to previous generation aircraft, as well as around 50% lower NOx emissions than industry standards, the A220 is an eco-friendly aircraft for regional as well as long-distance routes operations.
As of the end of November 2021, over 180 A220s had been delivered to 13 operators, from Asia, North America, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.
