“It’s a great honor to see our E-Jets sporting the colors of such a renowned airline as Lufthansa,”

proud to have been selected as the backbone for the renewal of the Lufthansa regional fleet, and our satisfaction is even greater, because we have recently achieved the outstanding milestone of 600 E-Jets operating with 49 airlines in 34 countries.”

said Mauro Kern, Embraer Executive Vice President, Airline Market.

Lufthansa CityLine’s EMBRAER 195 is configured for 116 passengers in a dual-class layout, with a moveable divider. The new aircraft joins the modern and efficient regional fleet Lufthansa has come to depend upon for its European routes and feeder flights to its longhaul network. Based at the carrier’s hub in Munich, the E-Jets will develop new routes and expand Lufthansa’s regional outreach, offering passengers more comfort an  safety, without the undesirable middle seat.
