SaltWire's Atlantic regional weather forecast for November 7, 2023 | SaltWireSAO PAULO - Brazilian planemaker Embraer has been trying to sell U.S. carriers on the merits of its E195-E2 jet as a"small narrow-body", even as demand in its No.1 market has remained focused on the smaller, first generation E175-E1.

"It is an aircraft that can very well complement the operation of large narrow-bodies," Chief Executive Francisco Gomes Neto said in an interview on Monday. Gomes Neto said he hopes that new flights by Canada's Porter Airlines to cities such as San Francisco and Tampa will help showcase the plane to U.S. carriers.

"It's a very efficient aircraft. When you fly it with an 80% load factor it's very, very profitable, and that's the point we've been trying to show the U.S. majors."
