Hi,

Boarding started on time via bus for this short flight to Ljubljana.
Once we reached our plane I was happily surprised that this flight would be operated by one of the brand new Embraer 190 E2 of Helvetic Airways.

The cabin looked of course very new and also quite nice with a mixed interior of grey and red.

The seats itself were comfortable enough for short hops however only featured very limited legroom. Longer flights on this plane for sure are not the most comfortable ones.

An amazing plus on such a regional jet were the power plugs at each seat.

Due to a lot of traffic we had to wait at our parking position for more than 30 minutes until we finally started taxiing and took off into cloudy rainy skies. This flight was scheduled to only take short 50 minutes.

Once released the friendly cabin crew soon started service for this full flight - for soon a tough job for them. The trolley rolled down and everybody received a nice cheese sandwich followed by a big choice of drinks. I had some Swiss beer and water.

In rare occasions you could spot some nice Alpine scenery under the clouds.

  • Thanks for your Flight-Report featuring this new aircraft for Helvetic/SWISS.

  • Thank you for this report

    unfortunetly, Embraer won't be able to beat A220 on this market segment unless if Embraer succeed to merger it commercial branch with bigger industrial group as it was to occure with Boeing.

    However, it is seems they did a great job and looks as good as is A220
