Embraer delivers American Airlines’ first E175 with next-generation RECARO seats

The aircraft introduces RECARO’s next-generation passenger seats on American’s E175 fleet, with Embraer positioning the cabin as closer to the E2 family’s passenger environment. The delivery comes as American pursues a firm order for 90 E175s, part of a plan to move away from 50-seat regional jets.
