Brazillian OEM Embraer has won a form order for 15 of its E190-E2 airliners from Japan’s ANA Group as part of the Japanese carrier’s fleet renewal plan.
The deal also includes options for a further five of the type.
ANA will use the E190s on its extensive domestic network across Japan and the economics of the type will allow it to enhance that connectivity further.
“We are honoured that Embraer’s E190-E2 small narrowbody aircraft will join ANA’s fleet and we look forward to the delivery of the first aircraft in 2028,” said Martyn Holmes, Chief Commercial Officer, Embraer Commercial Aviation. “The E190-E2 is the quietest and most fuel-efficient aircraft available, whose size perfectly complements ANA’s fleet of larger narrowbodies. Furthermore, the E2’s cabin will appeal to ANA’s passengers as it offers outstanding comfort and space with no middle seats. We look forward to seeing the aircraft take to the skies across Japan.”
When the airline takes delivery, it will be the first E2 version of the popular E-Jets range to operate in Japan.
