Embraer has announced that Scoot, the low-cost subsidiary of Singapore Airlines, has announced its selection of the Embraer E190-E2 aircraft as part of its growth strategy in the region. The airline has signed a lease agreement with Azorra for nine E190-E2 planes, with the first delivery scheduled for 2024. This move allows Scoot to enhance its fleet with the quietest and most fuel-efficient aircraft under 150 seats.
The E190-E2 belongs to Embraer’s E-Jets E2 family, which has been in service since 2018. The aircraft offers superior environmental efficiency, operating performance, and passenger comfort. With its advanced aerodynamics, innovative wing design, and new technologies, the E190-E2 reduces carbon emissions and fuel burn by 25% compared to the previous generation E-Jets.
