NEW YORK, Nov. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Natixis Corporate & Investment Banking (Natixis CIB) announced the closing of a Pre-Delivery Payment ("PDP") Financing Facility for Azorra Aviation for Airbus A220-300 aircraft. The PDP Facility will finance the initial A220 deliveries from Azorra's twenty-two A220 Family aircraft order book including twenty A220-300s and two ACJ TwoTwenty aircraft.
The A220 brings together state-of-the-art aerodynamics, advanced materials and Pratt & Whitney's latest-generation PW1500G geared turbofan engines. Featuring a 50% reduced noise footprint and up to 25% lower fuel burn per seat compared to previous generation aircraft, as well as around 50% lower NOx emissions than industry standards, the A220 is a well-suited aircraft for regional as well as long distance routes.
