Embraer has delivered its 1,500th E-Jet, an E175, to Seattle-based Horizon Air, a wholly owned subsidiary of Alaska Air Group.
Horizon Air’s E175 is configured with 12 seats in first class, 12 in premium class and 52 in the main cabin. By the end of the year, Horizon will have a fleet of 26 E175 with four more jets scheduled for delivery in 2019.
“We’re thrilled to have more than doubled the number of E175s in our fleet over the past year,” said Gary Beck, Horizon Air president. “Since introducing them in 2017, the Embraer jets have been a huge hit with our guests flying to and from our West Coast hubs and focus cities. With all the comforts of a larger mainline jet, guests can stay connected with inflight Wi-Fi and enjoy no middle seat whenever they fly.”
