Azul to be launch operator of E195-E2
Azul, already the world’s largest operator of the current generation Embraer 195, will be the launch operator of the re-engined E195-E2. “Azul played a key role in the E195-E2 development, actively participating in the design specification of the aircraft and helping Embraer design the most efficient single-aisle aircraft in the market today,” says John Slattery, Embraer commercial aviation president and CE. The carrier has an order for up to 50 E195-E2s, comprising 30 firm orders and 20 purchase rights. The airline will configure its new aircraft in a single-class layout with 130 seats. Embraer is targeting to deliver the first E195-E2 in the first half of 2019. Azul has 73 E-Jets in service, of which 64 are E195s. <br/>
