Embraer delivers 1st E195-E2 to Belavia

Belavia has taken delivery of its first of three E195-E2s. The aircraft, EW-555PO (19020042) was handed over on 21 December and will be flown to Minsk in a few days. The other two are to follow in March and April 2021.

The trio is leased via AerCap in a deal both companies signed in February of this year. Belavia plans to fly their new E2s to Amsterdam, Barcelona, London, Munich, Nur-Sultan, Paris and Sochi.

The Belarus airline currently has a fleet of 28 aircraft consisting of three B737-300s, four B737-500s, nine B737-800s, five ERJ175s and seven ERJ195s. Next to the new E2s, Belavia also has four B737-8s on order with Boeing, of which the first is expected to arrive early next year.
