ACG has delivered its first new Airbus A220-300 to ITA Airways, the initial unit from a 20‑aircraft order placed in 2022. The jet is the first of five A220‑300s ACG will hand over to ITA over the coming months, supporting the carrier’s short‑haul fleet renewal.

Briefing
ACG’s handover is the first delivery from its 2022 order for 20 A220-300s, with five aircraft due to be delivered to ITA in the coming months — a measurable capacity injection for the carrier.
ITA’s short‑haul operations are already strained after the Pratt & Whitney PW1000G recall that led the airline to ground 22 aircraft and warn of a ~€150m hit, making timely A220 deliveries operationally important.
The A220 programme faces supply constraints: Airbus has delayed its A220 production ramp and flagged adjustments to targets, a risk to delivery timing for lessors and lessees alike (see related reporting on A220 production targets).
