I have no inside information. However Jetblue contract delivery #1 in March was on 08Mar and #2 on 18Mar.

Jump to postI have not heard of a single accident or incident in modern times that was due to the aircraft being severely overweight due to average weights. What’s most important is being within the CG balance range. I have no doubt these planes will fly if slightly heavier than what is expected because of sta...
Jump to postThis is a non-trivial amount of weight added to the flight. With all the scrutiny from the FAA United are under I wonder how this will be treated from a regulatory point of view. It doesn’t add any weight actually. Bags in overhead bins are already accounted for in the standard passenger weights. W...

Dumb question. Since Breeze's aircraft and crew return to the base at night, I expect that it is rare for the crew to stay at a hotel. Is this considered good from a quality of life standpoint, and does it save any significant amount of money on expenses for crew housing/meals and charges for parki...
Jump to postShort answer is no, actually it’s never. The long answer is still no, but there is limited exceptions. So the regionals operate under a Contract Capacity Agreement (CPA) that specifically say which aircraft (registration numbers, line numbers, etc) can fly for the specific CPA. There is always built...

Jump to postAnecdotal…
The 190E1 burns about 4,000lbs/hr, the 195E1 burns about 4200lbs/hr and the A223 burns about 4500-4800lbs/hr.
So if Embraer’s figures for fuel reduction between the E1 and E2 are accurate, it’s completely feasible for the 195E2 to beat the A223 in CASM.
