Luxair Purchases Two Embraer E195-E2 Aircraft

Options Bring Fleet To Six On Order

Luxair, the flag air carrier of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, exercised the option in its 2023 contract with Embraer for two additional E195-E2 single-aisle aircraft, bringing the airline to a total of six of the narrowbody aircraft on order.

The airline still has three purchase rights remaining that are convertible to the E190-E2 as necessary. The first aircraft delivery from the 2023 order will be placed in service by 2026 and this order secures deliveries into 2027.

Luxair’s E195-E2s will be configured in a comfortable single class layout with 136 seats in Embraer’s signature two by two seating without middle seats.

Gilles Feith, CEO of Luxair said, “The E195-E2 is a critical investment in Luxair's future, enabling us to balance growth with our commitment to a greener and quieter future. Starting in 2026, these aircraft will mark the beginning of a new era for Luxair, bringing quieter operations, superior fuel efficiency, and unmatched passenger comfort to our customers.

“With a focus on a remarkably quiet interior cabin and low noise emissions, the E195-E2 aligns perfectly with our vision for a more sustainable, efficient, and customer-focused regional airline.”

Marie-Louise Philippe, SVP Sales and Marketing, Head of Region Europe and Central Asia for Embraer Commercial Aviation, said, “We thank Luxair for the trust they have shown in Embraer with this follow on order, coming before the delivery of their first E2s next year.

“The E2 is perfectly suited to Luxair’s operations and ambitions, closely complementing Luxair’s existing and on-order fleet, ensuring the maximum level of fleet and network optimization to the airline for the long-term. The E2’s advanced features, new technology, low noise and environmental footprint, make it possible for airlines to manage both their growth and sustainability goals.”
