Company Will Promote Full Range Of Commercial Jets Up To 122
Seats
Embraer will participate in the annual European Regions
Airline Association (ERA) General Assembly. The event, to be held
October 8 to 10, is one of the most important airline, airport and
supplier gatherings in Europe, and includes a trade exhibition and
a one-and-a-half-day conference. It will be held in Interlaken, one
of the oldest and most popular tourist destinations in
Switzerland.
Embraer will be promoting its ERJ 145 and Embraer 170/190 E-Jets
families, seating from 37 to 122 passengers. The Company’s
Flight Hour Pool Program, which ensures the best support to
customers, will also be highlighted. “Our families of
commercial jets have proven to be very successful in Europe, and
the customer base has grown to 23 airlines in 16 countries,
consisting of 205 aircraft,” said José Luis Molina,
Embraer Vice President for Europe, Africa, and the Middle East
– Airline Market. “Europe is a very important market
for Embraer. Our newest jet family, the Embraer 170/190, which
first entered service in Europe with LOT Polish Airlines, back in
April 2004, recently reached a significant milestone with the
delivery of the 600th E-Jet to the very same European airline, just
eight months after the 500th delivery to Air France’s
subsidiary Regional.”
Embraer has welcomed six new European operators this year:
U.K.’s BA CityFlyer; Germany’s Lufthansa regional
partners CityLine, Augsburg Airways, and Air Dolomiti;
Austria’s Niki Luftfahrt GmbH.; and Ukraine’s
Windrose.

and 794 options as of June of this year. Today, this family of jets
has been ordered by 53 customers in 35 countries, worldwide.
