, it was perceived by many – not least by Embraer – as a political order. Embraer lost a deal almost done to Airbus, but was and still is convinced its E2s would have been the perfect fit. But LOT is adamant that the A220 better matches its future market requirements, the airline’s Chief Commercial Officer said in Berlin at the CAPA Airline Leader Summit.
Between panel discussions on fuel shortages and geopolitical unrest, there was an afternoon session on Thursday dedicated to the Airbus A220. Benjamin Peiron, Head of Single Aisle Marketing at Airbus, walked the audience through the benefits and updates of the smallest member of the Airbus family. Cathal Kyle, SVP Marketing of lessor Azorra, also offered insights.
The most interesting comments came from Robert Ludera, recently promoted to CCO, who discussed in greater detail why the Polish airline selected the A220 last June, placing an order for 20 A220-100s, 20 A220-300s, plus 44 options.
