SAO JOSE DOS CAMPOS (Brazil): Some 14 months after Scoot inked a deal to add Embraer planes to its books, the first of nine new E190-E2 jets was handed over to the Singapore budget carrier ahead of the aircraft’s inaugural flight to Krabi in Thailand on May 7.
It is the first time an aircraft from the Brazilian manufacturer is being introduced to the fleet of a Singapore carrier, and a handover ceremony was held on April 11 at Embraer’s headquarters in the city of Sao Jose dos Campos, an hour’s drive from Sao Paulo.
