Embraer Delivers 2,000th E‑Jet to Azul

Overview

• Embraer announced that it handed the program’s 2,000th E‑Jet to Azul, a delivery the company praised as an extraordinary milestone for its commercial aviation arm.
• Reports differ on the exact subtype delivered, with some outlets naming an E175‑E2 and others reporting an E195‑E2, a discrepancy not resolved in available coverage.
• Embraer says the E‑Jet family has served more than 90 airlines in over 60 countries and logged roughly 48 million flight hours, with some reports adding the fleet has carried about 2.85 billion passengers.
• Azul has been a long‑standing partner, operating more than 140 E‑Jets, acting as launch customer for the E195‑E2, and marking this delivery as its 50th E2 aircraft.
• The milestone comes more than two decades after the first E‑Jet entered service in 2004 and highlights how the E‑Jet line and its E2 upgrades helped Embraer move into larger short‑haul markets and compete with small narrowbody models.
