LATAM signs component supply and maintenance deal with Embraer for E195‑E2 fleet

LATAM signed a contract with Embraer to supply and maintain components for its 24 ordered E195‑E2 jets, covering more than 300 components.

The agreement includes participation in Embraer’s Pool Program, giving LATAM access to shared parts inventories, replacement services, repairs and revisions, and Embraer will keep a selected stock of parts at LATAM’s Brazilian facilities to reduce aircraft downtime.

LATAM invested roughly US$50 million in preparation for receiving the new jets, covering crew training, maintenance upgrades and operational infrastructure, and its first phase will operate 42 domestic routes plus four new destinations, targeting 67 Brazilian destinations overall and studying up to 18 additional cities for a second phase in 2027.
