Avelo Airlines has ordered up to 100 Embraer E195-E2 jets, including 50 firm orders and 50 options, to modernize its fleet and expand its network, with deliveries starting in 2027. This makes Avelo the first US airline to operate this aircraft, which offers improved fuel efficiency, passenger comfort, and short-field performance, though the high acquisition cost raises questions about long-term profitability amid industry consolidation.
