Rising costs, with the rise in oil prices, could impact airline fleet expansion and renewal plans. However, Embraer has not identified, to date, a direct impact of the conflict on the company, according to the manufacturer’s CEO, Francisco Gomes Neto.
“We did not identify any drop in interest in our sales campaigns or any movement to postpone deliveries”, reinforced the executive during the results conference call.
Gomes Neto also assessed that Embraer is well positioned in this context of rising fuel prices, especially with the E2 model. “We have the most efficient aircraft in the small, single-aisle segment and we are seeing increasing interest in this product,” he added.

Given this scenario, Embraer’s CEO concluded by saying that the manufacturer is “cautiously optimistic” in relation to new campaigns with the E2 model.
