SkyWest has confirmed an order for 20 more E175 jets from Brazilian plane maker Embraer.
The latest order is in addition to SkyWest’s purchase of 25 E-Jets announced a month ago.
The deal is worth about $941 million at current list prices, Embraer said.
It comprises five standard 76-seat E175s and 15 of newly-designated E175-SC (special configuration), which has just 70 seats.
The five E175s will go to work on SkyWest Airlines-operated Alaska Air routes while SkyWest will fly the 15 E175-SC jets for Delta Air Lines.
Aircraft will be delivered through the end of 2018.
