You're referring to a recent news article!

Yes, you're correct. On February 25, 2021, it was announced that an airline has placed an order for 31 C Series (now known as Airbus A220) aircraft from Bombardier.

The airline is Air Arabia, a low-cost carrier based in the United Arab Emirates. The order is valued at approximately $1.1 billion at list prices.

Air Arabia has been a long-time customer of Bombardier, and this new order will bring the airline's total fleet of C Series/A220 aircraft to 47. The airline plans to use the new aircraft to expand its operations in the Middle East, North Africa, and Europe.

The C Series/A220 is a family of narrow-body, twin-engine jet airliners developed by Bombardier. It's known for its fuel efficiency, comfort, and range. The aircraft has been popular among low-cost carriers and regional airlines due to its ability to operate efficiently on short- to medium-haul routes.

Airbus acquired a majority stake in the C Series program from Bombardier in 2018, and the aircraft was rebranded as the Airbus A220.
