Transport Canada certifies 90-passenger cabin configuration for Bombardier Commercial Aircraft’s Q40
Bombardier Commercial Aircraft has received certification for its 90-passenger Q400 aircraft configuration from Transport Canada, becoming the first in-production commercial turboprop globally to reach that capacity.
“With increasing growth in the number of passengers per departure in the turboprop market, we are excited to offer our customers a higher-capacity configuration and 15 percent lower cost per seat compared to the previous standard Q400, leading to more profitability potential for airlines,” said Todd Young, Head of the Q Series Aircraft Program, Bombardier Commercial Aircraft. “This milestone certification showcases -- once again -- the unique versatility of the Q400 turboprop and our continued commitment to the evolution of the program.
