The network growth will be facilitated by the expansion of the airline’s Embraer E-Jet fleet, which is flown on its behalf through a capacity purchase agreement with SkyWest Airlines.

Dubbed the E175+, the variant KLM ordered has a different winglet to the baseline aircraft to increase fuel efficiency.
