Aircraft is part of the order for 30 E-Jets by Lufthansa for its regional subsidiaries

Embraer will deliver the first EMBRAER 195 jet, today, to Air Dolomiti, the Lufthansaowned Northern Italy regional carrier, during a ceremony held at Embraer’s headquarters in São José dos Campos, Brazil. The deal with Lufthansa was announced in June 2007, covering 30 firm orders for the EMBRAER 190 jet, with the option to take any aircraft of the E-Jets family.

Air Dolomiti’s EMBRAER 195 is configured for 116 seats in a single-class layout, with a moveable partition. It will be used to link Air Dolomiti’s Italian network to Lufthansa’s Munich hub, in Germany.
