DALLAS — Today, Luxair (LG), the flag carrier of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, has signed a firm order with Embraer for two E195-E2.
The order resulted from exercising two options secured in 2023 when LG placed its firm order for four E195-E2s. From the order placed on October 11, 2023, the airline still has the right to exercise three purchase rights, with conversion rights to the E190-E2 as required.
The airline is set to receive six E195-E2, with deliveries scheduled in early 2026. LG’s new order secures additional delivery slots in 2027. The aircraft will be configured with a single-class layout with 136 seats in Embraer’s signature four-abreast layout.
The E195-E2 will allow LG's to complement its Boeing 737 fleet and operate routes to European regional airports.
Comments from Luxair, Embraer Officials
“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,” said Gilles Feith, CEO of Luxair.
Marie-Louise Philippe, SVP Sales and Marketing, Head of Region Europe and Central Asia, 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.”
