Nothing to say on Lufthansa talks Gomes Neto acknowledged that Embraer needs new orders to keep its backlog steady for the coming years. While pleased with the interest. he was unwilling to discuss the status of talks with Lufthansa, which has shown an interest in the E2-family. CEO Carsten Spohr confirmed this during an online symposium in February. Lufthansa CityLine operates nine E190s and two E195s that are over ten years old. Through Helvetic, which operates services on behalf of Lufthansa subsidiary SWISS, the German airline has got an insight into how its fleet of eight E190-E2s performs. Helvetic will take delivery of its first E195-E2 in June or July.
