Japanese airline All Nippon Airways (ANA) has confirmed its decision to become the first operator of the Embraer E-Jet E2 family in Japan. This announcement was made during the 2025 Paris Air Show, where ANA finalized a firm order for 15 units as part of a broader fleet renewal plan.
ANA's choice of the Embraer E190-E2 model marks a significant step forward in its fleet modernization strategy. Deliveries are set to begin in 2028 and continue until 2033. Martyn Holmes, Chief Commercial Officer of Embraer Commercial Aviation, expressed his enthusiasm: "We are honoured that Embraer’s E190-E2 small narrowbody aircraft will join ANA’s fleet. The E190-E2 is the quietest and most fuel-efficient aircraft available, whose size perfectly complements ANA’s fleet of larger narrowbodies."
Earlier this year, ANA announced a comprehensive order for 77 aircraft, which included the firm commitment for 15 Embraer E190-E2 jets along with options for an additional five. The rest of the order comprises Airbus A321neo, A321XLR, Boeing 737 MAX, and Boeing 787 models.
