Flying twice as far, the A220 can connect any two points across Australia non-stop, while also bringing a significant 25% reduction in fuel consumption and carbon emissions compared to previous-generation aircraft.<\/p>\n<p>The A220 also has the largest cabin, seats and windows in its class, offering passengers superior comfort.
