Hunnu Air has launched scheduled services with E-195E2 aircraft in Mongolia –the inaugural E2 flight from Ulaanbaatar to Beijing’s Daxing International Airport, also marked the first time the E2 has operated on a scheduled route into mainland China. Hunnu Air, Embraer and Beijing Daxing Airport jointly hosted yesterday a ceremony to mark the smooth inauguration of this route, strengthening connectivity between the aviation hubs of Mongolia and China, and fostering closer economic and cultural ties between the two countries.

The flight was operated by the first of two new E-195E2 aircraft delivered to Hunnu Air in April. The airline plans to deploy its E-195E2 aircraft to increase capacity to Haikou, Sanya, Phu Quoc, expanding services to Japan, China, Vietnam, India, South Korea, and to introduce scheduled flights to Tashkent. Hunnu Air’s E-195E2 is configured in a dual class layout with 136 seats in Embraer’s signature two by two seating; meaning no passenger has to suffer the dreaded middle seat.

Embraer has been committed to Mongolia’s aviation market for several years, establishing long-standing partnership with Mongolian airlines in advancing the Nation’s aviation capabilities. The first Embraer aircraft – an ERJ-145 entered service in Mongolia in 2018.

E-Jets programme is one of the most successful commercial jets in the industry. Collectively, the E-Jets and E-Jets E2 are operated by more than 80 airlines across 50 countries with more than 1,800 units delivered.
