The Istanbul show is turning out to be newsy for Embraer. Following the Salam Air order, we now have this news. Royal Jordanian Airlines and Embraer have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to introduce two variants of Embraer’s advanced E2 jets to its fleet: the E190-E2 and E195-E2. In total, the airline intends to operate ten new Embraer jets to optimally serve short-haul routes within the region. Embraer’s next E2 win today is Royal Jordanian.
Royal Jordanian has been operating Embraers E175s and E190s for the past fifteen years. Choosing the newest version of the same type of aircraft helps reduce the investment cost of pilot training and spare parts provisioning while also lowering crew scheduling and maintenance costs, the airline’s CEO Majali said. It is interesting that the airline is upsizing its E175s to E190-E2s. The E175-E2 was not ordered and isn’t available for now, as Embraer decided earlier to delay the certification until 2027.

Our rating system is rated from one to seven stars on safety – with seven being the highest ranking. Within each airline, you will find the country of origin, airline code, booking URL and seat map information. The rating system takes into account a number of different factors related to audits from aviation’s governing bodies, lead associations, as well as the airlines, own safety data. Every airline has a safety rating breakdown so you can see exactly how they rate.
Over 230 of the airlines on the site that carry 99 per cent of the world’s passengers have a product rating. Given that low-cost, regional and full-service carriers are so different we have constructed a different rating system for each which can be found within each airline.
