Frequently Asked Questions
The CRJ family includes the CRJ-100/200 (50 seats), CRJ-700 (66-78 seats), CRJ-900 (76-90 seats), and CRJ-1000 (97-104 seats). Over 1,900 CRJs were delivered, making it one of the most successful regional jet programs in aviation history.
The CRJ-100/200 are the original 50-seat variants with CF34-3B1 engines. The CRJ-700/900/1000 are stretched designs with CF34-8C5 engines, wider cabin options, and significantly improved range. All share the same T-tail and rear-mounted engine configuration.
Major operators include SkyWest Airlines, Endeavor Air, and PSA Airlines flying as regional partners for United, Delta, and American. The CRJ-900 is the most widely operated variant in North America. The type certificate is now held by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.
The CRJ-100 first flew on May 10, 1991, based on the Canadair Challenger business jet, and entered service with Lufthansa CityLine in November 1992. The CRJ pioneered the 50-seat regional jet concept and transformed the regional airline industry in North America.
