LOT Polish Airlines is looking to order 50 regional airliners. They are a current EJet customer. They operate all the variants of EJets right now. They might order more than 50 planes since they have a goal to grow 50% more of there current fleet size .

[@hubertolczak]

Fully agree! I fly quite often with LOT, many European routes with their Embraers and it’s my favorite regional jet experience, I prefer them way more than Airbus A220 which I also often use on routes with Swiss and Air Baltic. I hope LOT will extend their fleet with newest E2s soon.

[@robertbrown3062]

Another reason Saudia might buy the E2 is that there are a large number of secondary cities in Saudi that could be served by a smaller plane. Also, allow them to operate greater frequencies between major centres during off peak times. Another interesting candidate might be Ethiopian. Addis Adaba is a “hot and (very) high airport” so the extra thrust would be useful. Plus allow them to connect secondary cities in Africa to their hub.

[@Ziyaggy]

I think South African Airways and other regional African carriers could be a good candidate given their route networks and relationship with Brazil

[@Sabundy]

Very true. These would be a great choice for South Africa

[@TheWolfHowling]

IMO, after the recent merger, Hawaiian Airlines could be a new Embraer E2 Customer. While Hawaiian is not an history operator of the E-Jet, their new partner Alaska is, so there could be some shared group orders & training resources. A New Fleet of E195-E2 could serve as a suitable replacement for the venerable Boeing 717 used on Hawaiian's interisland services, with over a dozen more seats.

[@AirShark95]

Are the PW GTF engines going to survive the high-frequency cycles?

[@TheWolfHowling]

@@AirShark95 I wouldn't know. However, if it would be a problem, the A220, the E2's Primary Competitor, also uses a P&W GTF & would also suffer similar consequences.

[@franciscogomes4416]

Totally agree with your predictions. Here in Canada Porter bought 75 Brazilian (195 E2) made planes and not the Canadian made Bombardier C series (aka, A220). Why is that ? And they reserved 25 more E2 . They increased their flight routes by 220 % last year. According to Porter the fuel saving of these planes are better than want Embraer advertised .

[@winhtin3420]

I read the reason why Porter chose the E195-2. 1. They needed the planes immediately and it will take a few years if they went with A220. 2. Embraer gave Porter a deal they can't refuse, this is a bit of a speculation but given Embraer's desparate position, there might be an ounce of truth. 3. Porter's way of giving the middle finger to the Canadian/Ontario government for not allowing them to fly A220 jets out of Toronto's Billy Bishop airport. Perhaps this is just a tongue in cheek comment by many. I guess no one will be so childish as to decide buying planes based on giving the middle finger.

[@patrice5976]

It’s political. They canceled their c-series order after political pressure. Bombardier, the pride of Quebec wasn’t allowed to survive after having the gall to build the best plane on earth… because Quebec is supposed to be a banana republic that needs English Canada to hold its hand… those Quebec folks can’t possibly do anything well… phook Canada

[@jacobMU1]

​@@winhtin3420I wonder how great a deal they got on the planes

[@jhankarmodak1739]

Spicejet can be an E2 customer. The reason the airline is even surviving is because of it tries to fill all the seats in every flight and also it looks for offbeat airports in india where not many airlines fly into. For that reason it heavily relies on Q400 as of now and the E2 can be a good alternative.

[@jamesb4292]

The entire experience of flying BA’s E190 from LCY is massively superior to fly A320/21 from LGW or LHR. Think I would happily pay 50% more for the ticket. I’d be excited to fly the e195-e2 from lcy

With Helvetic Airways operating for Swiss, there is alraedy a service to LCY carried out by an E190E2. My suggestion is that their E195E2 as well as KLM's will follow up soon with the new certification. This will open up more capacities without stuffing more flights in the already tight flightplan, which is also limited by the operational opening hours of the airport.

I think Hawaiian/Alaska will replace the 717's with the E2 195. It makes much more sense than using larger, more expensive 737's and Alaska does not want Airbus.

[@johnathankain8033]

I think BA could do a lot to ease congestion at LHR with the E2. They could use it for more point to point routes (from MAN or EDI) to popular destinations in Europe. Smaller and highly efficient could help legacy carriers provide a network more similar to low-cost airlines while competing with service / loyalty schemes etc.

I would like to see Southwest Airlines order the Embrear 195 E2. Southwest Airlines could get a good discount from Embrear. Sure the training costs would be a little bit higher but it would be more fuel efficient than a Boeing 737 700 and could open new routes where there is not as much demand as a Boeing 737 700.

[@alaskadrifter]

With the backlog for Airbus planes and Boeings current issues it’ll be interesting to see if 737 operators rake a hard look at Embraers.

A tough one for me. Both Boeing 737 series and Airbus A320 series are currently being overused in Indonesia, yet still struggling in terms of fulfilling the demands by departure times well. I believe now is Embraer's time to repair their brands by bringing their E2 into Indonesia and compete against Airbus A220, which had already arrived to Indonesia for flight demonstration, as well as COMAC ARJ21, which had been used by Transnusa.

[@luiskp7173]

I think you’re looking over the region who wants to fly every mission in a narrowbody jet: Latin America, specially South America. But neither LatAm nor Avianca, even COPA have shown interest on the a220. Avianca just duped all their smaller single aisle (ATR, a318, a319, MD-87) and a330s. I believe they are checking out the Azul model to see if the E2 is well-suited to do the job. Also take a look at Avianca, they are technically from Colombia, but with some planes still registered in Brazil. Maybe an Embraer plane could be bought without or reduced tariffs.

[@brianpawlowski6498]

Any high density market with emphasis on primarily wide body service would be a prime candidate. Especially locations with multiple airports. I'm surprised the orient wasn't focused here as well. Airlines could turn aircraft more frequently using the E2, especially during non peak hours and then supplement with larger aircraft in high demand hours. This could be a win-win for many airlines.

[@YHDiamond]

for british airways to fill all possible slots at london city, they would only need 10-20 E2 jets. That's not significant for Embraer. Something from Saudia (or an India airline!) who are both looking to expand their aviation industry rapidly and would place hundreds of orders would benefit Embraer a lot more.

[@youcantata]

In both Saudia and BA case, Airbus A220-300 or even A220-500 seems to be better choice than Embraer E2-195. The A220 is more expensive than the E2 but more flexible with longer range and more seats. A220 has most merits of E2.

[@rummypirate]

I’ve been flying on Saudia for a while now and I can say that the A320’s and A321’s they currently deploy for domestic use are almost always full. They’ve even started upgrading a lot of domestic A320 routes to A330R’s because of such high demand. However, this only applies when you’re traveling from a big city like Jeddah or Riyadh to smaller cities within Saudi. The only way I can see the E2 operating efficiently in Saudia’s fleet is if it’s used only between these smaller cities, and not to/from major cities. This was actually how they used the E170 way back then. But overall I do agree with your take. Keep up the good work 👍🏼

Cody all you said about the Middle East operation was true, but the best killer factor right now for this E2 or generally planes with the new Prat and Whitney engine it the engine itself. The airline I work for has delayed the E2 because of engines. If you see in India a320 with PnW engine are grounded and no solution found til now. Even the A220 in region are struggling with engine. I have meet with couple of captains who flew A320 PnW told me engine shutdown in mid cruise or some in climb phase. Prat and Whitney doesn’t have a solution for it. I wish they had because those engine are very fuel efficient even compared to Leap 1A/B engines.

For London City, you could have also mentioned having that short runway the E2 would be better than the A220 having a shorter takeoff performance. Both having a similar bypass ratio whilst the E2 is a lighter aircraft, it would have a shorter takeoff and landing distance, leaving it as the better option for their runway.

[@beuvue]

A220-100 has maximum takeoff weight of 63t, vs 61t for the 195-E2. For 2t of difference, A220-100 can flight 135pax (vs 132) to 3450nm (vs 2600nm). This difference in performance is explained by the use of more modern materials (composite wings and Al-Li mainframe) and a more aerodynamic design. Major airlines can then negotiate a price when they combine their A220 purchases with other models. They also know that buying A220s opens the door to the extended A220-500 model. 195-E2s remain an attractive purchase for low-cost or ultra-low-cost companies looking for short- and medium-term, low-cost solutions.

They desperately want the E175-E2, like all the other US regionals, but the plane's weight falls outside the US regional airlines scope clause, making it economically unattractive. I believe they previously intended to buy 100 of them, before dialing back. Embraer just needs to lighten the plane or weight for a scope clause revision in the next few years to allow the E175 E2 to comply. But if it does comply, all the US regionals will get their chequebooks out and the E2 order book will triple overnight. Heck, they are still ordering new E175s to meet their fleet needs.
