The aircraft, designed  in a 137-seat dual-class cabin layout, is expected to join the airline in December. Now, after being painted into the color of the Canadian carrier, the aircraft will have some pre-flight activities in the A220 flight line hangar in Mirabel. Afterward the plane is scheduled to take off for its first flight later this month.
