Overview
- The carrier placed a firm order for 50 E195‑E2s with purchase rights for 50 more, a deal valued at $4.4 billion at list prices, with first deliveries in the first half of 2027.
- The agreement makes Avelo the launch operator for Embraer’s E2 family in the United States as it adds the type alongside its fleet of 22 Boeing 737NGs.
- Avelo highlights 2×2 seating, in‑seat power, larger overhead bins, a quieter cabin, and the E2’s Enhanced Takeoff System for improved short‑field performance to reach constrained airports.
- The order follows the airline’s largest investment since its 2020 Series A, though the investor and amount were not disclosed.
- Reporting by The Air Current indicates Embraer may finance Avelo’s pre‑delivery payments, a detail not confirmed by the companies.
