The competition between these two families is intense. The recent LOT choice of the A220 over the E2 was odd since the airline already has some E2s in service, and was the launch customer for the first EJet. It was not a decision made purely on airplane economics.
Shortly after this, SAS selected the E2, and the announcement touted the E2’s economics, which drove the choice.
Co-Founder AirInsight. My previous life includes stints at Shell South Africa, CIC Research, and PA Consulting. Got bitten by the aviation bug and ended up an Avgeek. Then the data bug got me, making me a curious Avgeek seeking data-driven logic. Also, I appreciate conversations with smart people from whom I learn so much. Summary: I am very fortunate to work with and converse with great people.
