Abra Group's Adrian Neuhauser and Embraer's Francisco Gomes Neto pose after the airline group ordered the E195-E2.
FARNBOROUGH, England—Embraer has added Abra Group as its latest customer for the E2 family. The parent company of Gol and Avianca placed a firm order for 20 Embraer 195-E2s on the second day of the Farnborough Airshow. The commitment includes options and purchase rights for a further 20 aircraft.
Abra does not currently operate smaller narrowbodies. Instead, it has focused on the Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 for its short and medium-haul operation. Its competitor LATAM Airlines expects to take delivery of its first E195-E2 in the fall having ordered 24 of the type. The LATAM order was the first large commitment for the E2 by a Latin American airline since Brazil's Azul Airlines became a launch customer for the new generation aircraft.
Abra Group is the type’s 25th customer overall. The company has not disclosed yet which airline subsidiary is going to fly the aircraft.
Separately, Embraer announced three firm E-Jet orders: five more E195-E2s for Binter Canarias; three E190-E2s for Luxair; and two E175s for Fuji Dreams Airlines. All three are current Embraer operators.
Lessor Azorra meanwhile bought conversion slots for 20 E190Fs.
