David Neeleman’s ‘Moxy’ Could Launch Long Haul Airbus A220 Flights
He’s started up or been involved with more than six airlines to date, and now David Neeleman is at it again. The as yet unnamed airline, colloquially known as ‘Moxy’, has placed a huge order for A220 aircraft and could be the first to take them long haul. Here’s what we know so far.

Wow. I didn't know it could fly that far.
Yep, it can. The A220-300 has a 3200nm range, so that puts London-New York or London-Washington D.C. or Sydney-Singapore or Guayaquil-Las Vegas into play. It definitely has the range, so there's a lot that can be done, depending on the model.
It is really comfortable to fly in, you are not stuffed like the others. You can fly with AIR BALTIC in Riga. They have mastered service in this aircraft. I agree with everything Mr. Prigge said.
Air Baltic's A220s have a 32" pitch and 18.5" width with a maximum of 150 passengers. Usually the front couple of rows don't use the middle or aisle seat and they call that "Business" class. It has a 30,000+ payload with full fuel.
Yes Air Baltic's A220-300 have a 32 pitch and 18.5" width seat, but only 145 pax...and it is really comfortable to fly in...
I don’t know about Air Baltic, but the CS100 of SWISS is very comfortable, far better than B787 for example, which was done in by the airline’s greed, cramming in 9 seats across where the original layout was 8, in 2-4-2 configuration.
It's bad enough using narrow bodies on oceanic flights this is just adding insult to injury. Who am I kidding though airlines don't care about your comfort!
