IndiGo in Early Talks to Buy 100 Embraer Regional Jets with Options for 50 More
India's largest airline IndiGo is in early-stage talks to purchase 100 regional jets from Brazilian manufacturer Embraer, with an option for 50 more. The deal, not yet finalized, could be one of Embraer's largest orders and deliveries are expected from 2030 or later. Embraer produces several jet models seating between 88 and 146 passengers and has plans for a potential assembly line in India, contingent on securing at least 200 orders. This expansion aims to support IndiGo's growth in regional markets.
