Embraer Delivers Model 175 In Brazil

Regional Airline Has 10 More Aircraft On Order

Embraer held a delivery ceremony Wednesday at the Company’s headquarters in São José dos Campos, Brazil, of an Embraer 175 jet to Trip Linhas Aéreas, the largest Brazilian regional airline. The company has five firm orders for the Embraer 175, in a deal that includes options for another ten aircraft and purchase rights for 15 more.

“We are very proud and happy to receive Trip as our new E-Jets customer in Brazil,” says Frederico Fleury Curado, Embraer President and CEO. “We are certain that together, Embraer and Trip will make a big contribution to the Brazilian air transportation system.”

The new aircraft that will be delivered will join Trip’s fleet, which currently has another two Embraer 175 jets – and this E-Jet model is operating in Brazil for the first time – all of which are configured to comfortably accommodate 86 passengers in a single-class layout. The airplanes are being financed conjointly, in Brazilian Reals, by the National Social Development Bank (Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Social – BNDES) and the Bank of Brazil. “We began operating in the regional market 11 years ago, with a pre-owned 30-seat EMB 120 Brasilia, when modern services seemed like a distant dream. Today, we are the leader in the regional market and, with the acquisition of the jets by Embraer, a company that has marked our history as a great partner, we have become the regional airline that most invests in Brazil,” states José Mário Caprioli, President of Trip. According to Caprioli, the total investments in technology, linked to a team of professional partners throughout this entire time, have made the difference.

The new route network of the company includes flights leaving from Santos Dumont Airport, connecting Rio de Janeiro to 42 cities in all regions of Brazil, 13 of which are nonstop. The operation was strategically developed so that the new Embraer 175 jets operate in a synchronized fashion with the turboprops, thus optimizing the connections of Trip’s main hub airports with several Brazilian cities. The routes also offer connections to cities in all regions of Brazil and a few capital cities, providing greater flexibility for passenger travel.
