E-Jets converted to freighters will have 40% more volume capacity, 30% lower operating costs than larger narrowbodies.

Embraer’s first E-Freighter has officially entered commercial service in Europe, marking a significant milestone for the Brazilian manufacturer’s growing cargo programme. Launch customer Bridges Air Cargo operated the inaugural flight on Monday (9 March), departing Cologne, Germany, and landing in Larnaca, Cyprus, with a load of time‑sensitive express shipments.
