Azul Brazilian Airlines has stabilized its Embraer E195-E2 fleet operations following years of disruptions caused by Pratt & Whitney PW1900G engine availability issues. CEO John Rodgerson confirmed that the entire E195-E2 fleet is now operational, noting that the airline previously had to acquire aircraft specifically to serve as spare parts sources to mitigate shortages.

Embraer recently reached a major milestone with the delivery of its 2,000th E-Jet family aircraft to Azul. This commemorative E195-E2 marks the 50th E2 series aircraft in Azul’s fleet. 

Azul has maintained a strategic partnership with Embraer since its inaugural flight in 2008, operating more than 140 E-Jets. The airline was also the launch customer for the E195-E2, receiving its first unit in 2019. Since entering commercial service in 2004, the E-Jet family has become one of the three largest commercial jet families globally, with approximately 48 million flight hours and over 2.85 billion passengers transported across more than 60 countries.
