Airbus and Pratt & Whitney: A220 PW1500G reliability issues set to fade by end-2025, largely resolved by late-2026
Airbus and Pratt & Whitney say the Airbus A220’s PW1500G geared turbofan reliability problems—already driving years of disruption—should be resolved by the end of 2025. They add that pressure on operators will ease further as the number of grounded A220s tied to the engine issue declines, with most expected to be resolved by late 2026.
