Brazilian plane maker Embraer announced the deal to supply the E195-E2 jets at the Paris Air Show.
15 of the 35 are firm orders while the rest are described as "purchase rights."An Embraer E195 jet airliner on display at the 2019 Paris Air Show opened at Le Bourget Airport.PARIS — Brazilian aerospace firm Embraer announced Wednesday that Dutch airline KLM has committed to buying as many as 35 of its E195-E2 aircraft.
The deal, again based on Embarer's catalog pricing, means that the conglomerate has taken orders of 78 aircraft, worth around $4.6 billion, during the Paris Air Show this week.Speaking at the press conference, KLM President and CEO Pieter Elbers said previous purchases of Embraer's E190 and E175 model had expanded the airline's route network, but refused to be drawn on any new destinations thanks to the E195-E2's longer range.
