The Embraer 190 is a twin-engine narrow-body commercial jet developed by Brazilian manufacturer Embraer as part of the E-Jet family. It seats approximately 100 passengers in a typical two-class configuration and bridges the gap between smaller regional jets and larger mainline aircraft.
The aircraft features a double-bubble fuselage cross-section offering a 2-2 seating layout, eliminating middle seats and improving passenger comfort. Its advanced aerodynamics and fuel-efficient CFM56-derived CF34-10E engines make it a popular choice for short to medium-haul routes.
The E190 entered service in 2005 and has been widely adopted by airlines worldwide. Embraer later developed the upgraded E190-E2 variant, featuring more fuel-efficient Pratt & Whitney PW1900G geared turbofan engines and an updated wing design.
Notable operators
Major operators include JetBlue Airways, Azul Brazilian Airlines, Air Canada, Finnair, and Copa Airlines.
