SWISS Retires Entire Airbus A220 Fleet (migflug.com)
Swiss International Air Lines will retire all 30 of its Airbus A220 aircraft, ending its role as the type's launch operator. The nine A220-100s are scheduled to leave by late 2027 due to Pratt & Whitney engine wear, while the 21 A220-300s will be phased out in the 2030s. SWISS plans to consolidate its short-haul operations exclusively on the Airbus A320neo and A321neo families.

Worth noting this is Swiss-specific fleet simplification under PW1500G pressure, not a Lufthansa Group exit: the group still has 40 A220-300s on order (plus 20 options) mainly for Lufthansa City Airlines, with first deliveries expected in early 2027. [1]
