Frequently Asked Questions

The Embraer E-Jet E1 family includes the E170 (72-80 seats), E175 (78-88 seats), E190 (96-114 seats), and E195 (108-124 seats). The E175 is the best-selling variant with over 800 orders, dominant in the North American regional market.
The E170 and E175 share the shorter fuselage and are powered by GE CF34-8E engines. The E190 and E195 have a stretched fuselage and more powerful CF34-10E engines. All share the same cockpit and wing design, with a 2-2 seating layout that eliminates middle seats.
Major operators include Republic Airways and SkyWest Airlines (E175 for United Express and Delta Connection), JetBlue (E190), Aeromexico Connect, and KLM Cityhopper. The E175 dominates North American regional flying due to pilot scope clause restrictions.
The E170 first flew on February 19, 2002, and entered service with LOT Polish Airlines in March 2004. The E-Jet program established Embraer as a major force in the 70-130 seat segment, bridging the gap between regional jets and narrow-body airliners.
