On 26 September 2017, AirBaltic announced it would buy at least 14 additional C Series aircraft from Bombardier before the end of 2018. The airline plans to switch to an all-C Series fleet by the early 2020s. Additional orders by Air Baltic were announced by Bombardier on 28 May 2018. The order included 30 CS300 with options and purchase rights for a further 30 CS300. Airbus purchased a 50.01% majority stake in the CSeries program in October 2017, with the deal closing in July 2018. The family is subsequently also called the Airbus A220.
