Japan Airlines orders up to 26 Embraer jets for regional arm

Japan Airlines orders up to 26 Embraer jets for regional arm

Japan Airlines has announced an order of up to 26 Embraer E190-E2 regional aircraft for its subsidiary J-Air, according to a statement released on October 14. The firm orders include 16 aircraft, with an additional 10 options available. The E190-E2s will replace J-Air's existing fleet of first-generation E170 and E190 jets. Deliveries are scheduled to commence in the fiscal year 2029.

This move follows a recent expansion by another Japanese carrier, All Nippon Airways (ANA), which increased its 2025 firm order for E2 jets to 23 aircraft. The Embraer E2 family competes with the Airbus A220 in this market segment.
