Avelo Orders 50 Embraer E195E2 Jets, Becoming First U.S. Operator

The deal follows a fresh capital raise to enable growth at constrained airports.

Overview

  • Deliveries are scheduled to begin in the first half of 2027, with acquisitions planned through 2032.
  • The firm order is valued at about $4.4 billion at list prices and includes purchase rights for 50 more aircraft.
  • The commitment makes Avelo the launch operator for Embraer’s E2 family in the United States.
  • The E195‑E2s will complement Avelo’s 22 Boeing 737NGs and are positioned for smaller-airport operations with E2TS short-field capability, quieter cabins, 2×2 seating, and in-seat power.
  • Avelo recently announced its largest funding since 2020, and industry reporting indicates Embraer may provide pre‑delivery payment financing, which has not been confirmed by the companies.
