Small Narrowbody Jets

Embraer foresees a demand for ‘at least 50’ E1 and E2 crossover jets in Vietnam over the next five years, the company said at last month’s Singapore air show.

The ACMI market promises a steady source of work for the next few years at least, according to the head of one of Europe’s oldest airlines.

Austrian Airlines’ fleet of Embraer 195s may fly average sector lengths of around one hour, but that figure hides considerable variations in the crossover jet’s operations.

Egyptian hybrid carrier Air Cairo has found a niche in its network for its small sub-fleet of Embraer 190s.

The Egyptian flag-carrier operated 12 of the crossover jets, which are only between three and four years old.

Embraer’s E-Jets have racked up sizeable customer bases, but it is still unusual for the type to be used in the ACMI role.

The small Balkan state of Montenegro has established itself as a popular summer holiday destination for Europeans.

Eight years after it became the first airline in the world to put the Airbus A220 into service, Swiss is making full use of the type’s versatility.
