Embraer secures additional firm order from Azorra for 15 E195-E2 aircraft
Embraer has secured a firm order from US lessor Azorra for 15 E195-E2 aircraft, with an option for 15 more jets in the future, which comes in addition to their existing deals.
On June 5, 2026, Embraer said the agreement “further strengthened the long-standing partnership between the two companies”.
With the latest contract, Azorra’s total firm E2 orders increased from 39 to 54 aircraft. This marks the third increase to Azorra’s original E2 order, first placed in December 2021.
The new order also marks a milestone for Embraer’s E2 program, taking the total number of E2 orders beyond 500 aircraft.
“Azorra has been an important partner in the global success of the E2, and this latest order is another strong endorsement of the aircraft’s outstanding economics, performance and passenger appeal,” Arjan Meijer, President and CEO of Embraer Commercial Aviation, said. “Surpassing 500 E2 orders is a proud moment for Embraer and reflects the growing momentum behind right-sized, fuel-efficient aircraft.”
John Evans, CEO of Azorra, said that the company was making an additional investment in the aircraft type due to seeing “strong demand from airlines around the world”.
“The E2 has proven to be an ideal solution for airlines seeking to open new markets and modernize their fleets while enhancing the passenger experience and strengthening their brands,” Evans said.
As well as Embraer, Azorra has been working closely with Pratt & Whitney to expand the E2 customer base and introduce the aircraft to new operators.
“We are proud to further strengthen our partnership with Embraer through this order and to play a role in the E2 program surpassing 500 orders,” Evans added. “With this transaction, Azorra’s firm E2 orderbook also surpasses 50 aircraft—two important milestones that reflect both our confidence in the program and the growing global momentum behind this exceptional aircraft.”
