9A-CAN is an Airbus-Bombardier Airbus A220-300, a twin-engine jet. SkyMeter has tracked 1,714 flights totalling 2,284 hours of airtime via ADS-B across 127 callsigns. The most frequent segment is LDZA to EDDF. Service window in our records spans 231 days. Of those flights, 4 (0.2%) carry at least one detected incident — go-around, unstable approach, stall warning, or runway excursion. The Airbus-Bombardier Airbus A220-300 has a 115 ft wingspan, a maximum takeoff weight of 156,307 lb. The Airbus A220-300 represents one of the most significant clean-sheet narrowbody designs of the 21st century, originally conceived by Bombardier as the CSeries CS300 before Airbus acquired the program in 2018. Purpose-built for the 120-160 seat market segment that had been neglected for decades, the A220 introduced an all-new fuselage cross-section wider than the Boeing 737 or Airbus A320 despite its smaller capacity, along with Pratt & Whitney PW1500G geared turbofan engines that deliver roughly 20 percent better fuel efficiency than previous-generation aircraft. The type's advanced composite wing and fly-by-wire flight controls give it exceptional field performance, allowing operations from shorter runways and steep approaches that larger narrowbodies cannot handle. Its maximum operating speed of Mach 0.82 and service ceiling of 41,000 feet match those of much larger jets, while approach speeds around 125 knots and a maximum takeoff weight of 153,000 pounds position it perfectly between regional jets and mainline narrowbodies. The A220-300 has proven especially popular with carriers seeking to replace aging 757s and early-generation 737s on thin transcontinental and transatlantic routes, where its 3,400 nautical mile range and superior economics open new point-to-point markets that were previously unviable. The aircraft's spacious cabin, with wider seats and larger windows than competing types, has made it a passenger favorite on routes from Montreal to London and New York to Charleston. SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, with the largest observed operator.
