N219BZ

This airframe, registered as N219BZ, is an Airbus A220-300 (BD-500-1A11) built by Airbus Canada LP in 2023 with manufacturer serial number 55189. The aircraft is owned and operated by Breeze Airways (Breeze Aviation Group, Inc.), headquartered in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and carries a US registration. Delivered to Breeze in 2023, the airframe entered service in the low-utilization narrowwide sector typical of startup low-cost carriers; no significant off-registrations or re-registrations are recorded for this serial as of the build year.

The aircraft is fitted in a Two-class Breeze layout (typical 126 seats: 36 premium / 10 extra-legroom / 80 economy) tailored to Breeze Airways’ network strategy, providing an operator-specific mix of premium and higher-yield extra-legroom inventory alongside standard economy seating. Avionics for this airframe are listed as Rockwell Collins Pro Line Fusion / A220-class integrated avionics (operator fit varies), reflecting operator choices within the A220 fit options. Typical missions for N219BZ align with medium-range point-to-point domestic services and thin long-range routes enabled by a 3,400 nm range and a cruise speed of 447 kts, while maintenance follows Pratt & Whitney GTF program considerations and Airbus A220 scheduled checks under operator-managed programs.

The Airbus A220-300 (BD-500-1A11) family occupies a performance niche between regional jets and larger single-aisle types, offering lower fuel burn and quieter cabins driven by the PW1500G geared turbofan. Competing models include high-capacity regional and small single-aisle types, but the A220-300’s range and seating make it attractive for airlines seeking medium-density transcontinental and thin long-haul missions. Market demand among new-entrant low-cost carriers and network carriers has favored the type for its operating economics; resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe will follow GTF lifecycle support, A220 airframe time-on-wing profiles, and operator maintenance practices.
