SalamAir has signed a firm order with Embraer for six E195-E2s, with options for a further six aircraft. The E195-E2 will be delivered in a comfortable dual-class configuration with 135 seats, beginning at the end of 2023. The deal, which will be added to the Q3 backlog, is valued at US$934.6 million (£834.5 million), at list price with all options exercised.
The Muscat based low-cost carrier has opted for the E195-E2 to join and complement its all-Airbus narrow-body fleet for the benefits and flexibility right-sizing provides; protecting yields while growing frequencies, and developing new markets and city pairs profitably.
