Aurigny Air Services orders one new E195 jet

Guernsey-based regional carrier Aurigny Air Services has signed a firm contract with Embraer for one E195 jet.  Delivery is scheduled in the first semester of 2014. The E195 is the first jet aircraft to be added to the Aurigny Air Services fleet. The airline currently flies turboprops on six daily frequencies on its principal route between the London Gatwick Airport and Guernsey. With 122 slim seats in single-class layout, the E195 will enable the carrier to increase the number of daily flights to eight and offer much-needed additional capacity.
