New US LCC ‘Moxy’ orders 60 A220s
The new US low-cost carrier led by JetBlue Airways founder David Neeleman, now known as “Moxy,” signed a firm order with Airbus for 60 A220-300 airliners, the manufacturer announced Jan 3. The order, valued at US$5.4b at list prices, confirms a MOU the parties entered into during the Farnborough International Air Show in July. Deliveries are expected to start in 2021. With Moxy, Neeleman plans to serve city pairs in underserved and short-haul markets with the A220-300, formerly the Bombardier CSeries CS300. Neeleman said: “The A220’s ability to operate profitably in thin, underserved markets across a broad spectrum of ranges is unique.” Airbus reports an order book for 500 A220s to date. <br/>
