LATAM Brasil to receive 24 E195‑E2 jets for domestic rollout starting November

LATAM Brasil will be the first operator of the new Embraer E195‑E2, with 24 aircraft slated for delivery and gradual deployment on 42 domestic routes from November next year through March 2027.

The airline intends to add routes and destinations where its A320s are too large, increase frequency in other markets, and consider regional South American services, while possibly extending seasonal flights to Bariloche and Ushuaia; phase three, expected around February 2027, could bring cross‑border use of the type. LATAM’s current international South American schedule from Brazil averages 620 weekly flights and 113,000 seats in October, about 182 seats per flight, based on the 24 firm orders.

Should LATAM exercise options for an additional 50 E195‑E2 aircraft, the regional impact of the fleet would change significantly.
