Last week, Embraer delivered another Embraer E195-E2 to the Dutch airline KLM Cityhopper. The twelfth aircraft in the fleet has the registration number PH-NXL, and has already started flying commercially for the company, taking off from Amsterdam Schiphol to Valencia, Spain.
This E195-E2 made a delivery flight departing on June 28 from São José dos Campos, in the interior of São Paulo and where it was produced, stops were made in Recife and Tenerife, landing in Amsterdam in the late afternoon of the 29th of June.
Due to its strategic location, Gilberto Freyre International Airport in Recife often receives Embraer aircraft on delivery routes for airlines in Europe.
A few hours later, the E195-E2 entered the network, on July 1st, completing flights to Valencia, and the next day to Venice (Italy) and Lyon (). like the Schiphol Airport is experiencing operational chaos a few weeks ago, most of these operations were carried out with delays, and some flights were cancelled.
The company chose a single-class interior with 132 seats for its aircraft of this model. In the company's fleet, the Embraer E195-E2 will directly replace the E195-E1, and some Boeing 737-700 aircraft, continuing its regional fleet renewal plan.
So far, KLM has an order for 35 Embraer jets, 25 of which are firm orders with an option for an additional 10. The aircraft are being negotiated by ICBC Aviation Leasing (10) and Aircastle (15).
