Africa is poised for a connectivity revolution. Despite Africa accounting for 18% of the global population, it contributes less than 3% to global GDP and only 2.1% to global air passenger and cargo traffic, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA). This disparity is fundamental in the continent’s limited intra-regional air connectivity, a significant bottleneck The post Connecting Africa: Unlocking Africa’s Intra-regional Connectivity Potential appeared first on Em...| Embraer
There are 3,000 small narrow-body (NB) aircraft flying today, with many airlines looking to replace these aircraft in the next few years. Choosing which new aircraft to introduce into a fleet is determined by three main factors – aircraft economics, passenger demand and operational model. The latest generation of small NB aircraft, like the Embraer E-Jets The post The big appeal of small narrow-body aircraft. appeared first on Embraer.| Embraer
Our E2s just keep getting better! We now have approval from ANAC, Brazil’s aviation regulatory authority, to fly the E190-E2 and E195-E2 under ETOPS 120 rules. This doubles the 60-minute ETOPS limit under which the aircraft were previously operating. We had hoped to get the approval earlier, but we needed more time to accrue the The post ETOPS 120 brings new opportunities to our E2 customers. appeared first on Embraer.| Embraer
We recently announced 64 commercial aircraft deliveries for 2023. This is one unit short of our planned 65 to 70 target but it’s still 12% more than 2022. While I’m pleased with the upward trend, our goal is to return to around 90 annual deliveries which we achieved in 2018 and 2019.
