The biggest surprise to me on this is that it's the E2s and not A220s. If I recall correctly they were going to be a launch customer of the A220 (then C-Series) if they could get approval for jets at YTZ.


All that said, very cool, and a boost to the aviation industry in Canada. Did you happen to see if they'll be at T1 or T3 of YYZ? I didn't think there'd really be any capacity at either but I guess post-pandemic things have opened up a bit.
