Embraer’s offer to Croatia Airlines “hard to refuse”


Embraer is confident it can secure an order from Croatia Airlines to replace its entire fleet of six Dash 8 turboprops and seven Airbus A320-family aircraft, saying the offer it has prepared for the airline is “too hard to refuse”. Although both Embraer and Airbus presented their aircraft to the carrier exactly a year ago - Embraer its E2 jet and Airbus its A220 - the Brazilian planemaker says it is prepared to replace Croatia Airlines’ fleet within eighteen months of securing an order. “From the day we presented our aircraft in Zagreb we have been at the disposal of Croatia Airlines’ team. Embraer is an expert in this segment of the aviation market, and we believe that the best solution for Croatia Airlines would be to align its fleet with the same family of advanced new-generation aircraft. If we take organic traffic growth into account, we are talking about a fleet of some fifteen aircraft”, the President and CEO of Embraer Commercial Aviation, Arjan Meijer, told the “Jutarnji List” daily.

The plane manufacturer has offered Croatia Airlines a good deal if it secures an order. “Embraer has put together an offer that is hard to refuse. In principle, we do not publicise the value. What I can say is that our aircraft would generate a significantly higher operating profit in Croatia Airlines’ network, due to its significantly smaller cost base. The calculation of this advantage over a ten-to-fifteen-year period of flying amounts to several million dollars per aircraft. I am convinced that we can translate our lower production costs into a far better offer for Croatia Airlines, saving the country millions”, Mr Meijer said. He added, “Also, Embraer would compensate for any financial difference that Croatia Airlines might have due to the previous, unfulfilled order from Airbus. This tender is of strategic importance for us and we want to ensure that the airline has complete freedom of choice between the two options”.

Embraer’s Vice President for Sales and Marketing, Cesar Pereira, previously told EX-YU Aviation News, “The E2 family of aircraft would allow Croatia Airlines to significantly boost operational efficiency and lower costs, by reducing complexities that airlines typically have if they operate more than one type. This includes areas such as crew training, scheduling, maintenance, and operations. The overall result of flying a single-type fleet is lower costs and improving the airline’s financial performance”. He added, “The E2 family is comprised of three family members, from ninety to 146 seats, which will offer Croatia Airlines great flexibility to operate the ideal capacity on their future network. Embraer is in advanced stages of launching a next generation turboprop aircraft, built on the design and comfort of the E2. Once launched, this aircraft could be a formidable contender for Croatia Airlines on thinner and shorter markets, where the Q400 is operating today”.

    If they decide to replace entire fleet than Embraer makes more sense as they have planes with 90 seats while the smallest version of the A220 has minimum 100 seats.

      90 seats is E2-175 which is delayed multiple time due to lack of orders. Zero orders until now.
      Embraer has a big issue with this airplane, that is why they now focusing on turboprop design as a substitute.

      Embraer E2 is loser at moment. US and most of other companies replace old E190/195 with A220! Just look at orders for E2 and A220, and everything is clear. Once A220-500 appears, E2 will be dead. A220 will cover 100-175 seat category which will be optimum for airlines like Croatia or Air Serbia for short and medium range. Only chance for Embraer is to finalize turboprop in 90 seat category, and go to market where could replace old Q400 and compeete with ATR72 with bigger capacity and lower costs. Even then we can expect next generation of ATR as respond from Airbus. I personaly believe that Embraer will loose.

      Seems that Mitsubishi was on time to quit with waisting money in this range with with MRJ. SSJ is RIP for at least 5 years. Bombardier quit also. Since Boeing has no interest investing in E2 program - I believe we will soon have only one player. Airbus and A220 in obviously winning this game. Turboprop can be only chanse, and yes, I agree that targeting capacity shall be arround 76 pasangers so plane could scoop USA and rest of the world...

      Both Mitsubishi & Embraer "lost a bet" that US rules limiting regional aircrafts will be changed. That caused huge issues with new planes for them, Mitsubishi was at the end forced to exit the business.
      To be honest, I'm note sure based on what insider info they made such a mistake.

      Embraer has less orders even than SSJ! Below 300! This plane will be dead in next 10 to maximum 15 years! This disaster can be recomended to Croatia only by self proclamed analyst such as Purger. Personaly I believe Croatia shall fly turboprop plus a319. One day they will be able to replace a319 with a220. That's it.

    This whole situation with OU getting new airplanes is completely wrong. Reminds me of the comments sections on T6 whenever new air force jet trainer is mentioned, yet the actual airplane that these should be preparing pilots for - hasn't been chosen. How can OU decide which planes are best for them when their management is clueless and they have no strategy whatsoever (apart some nonsense on the paper they overpaid for)?! How can you select the best airplane when you are not sure what you will be using it for? Before plunging into such an expensive adventure of buying new airplanes, wouldn't it be logical to first do something about the company management, get some people that actually know their business and want to work, get rid of unnecessary employees, come up with an actual plan and long-term strategy and THEN see which planes fit the role best? I mean - Croatia is not Slovenia, a fleet consisting of regional jets very well might not suite them well. Fine for the winter, but they would likely need bigger airplanes for the summer. Or, maybe their strategy will be to leave the summer market to the LCCs and leisure companies, and they focus on providing good connectivity for the country?

    My point is - instead of arguing which is better for OU, Airbus or Embraer, why aren't people focusing on the actual problems that OU has? Even if selecting a new airplane was the problem, the more pressing issue is the actual purpose for these planes, which needs to be established before the plane is selected. Otherwise, if they actually go through with the purchase, they could end up with expensive new airplanes that are inadequate for what they need...

OU management and subsequently Croatian government is trying to hide under the rock and not take responsibility for the foremost Croatian public and Croatian market. Its is obvious that picking A220 is avoiding responsibility to actually DO something in other segments of running an Airline. Yes, Embraer belongs to B country, first letter of the BRICS but other option is worse in the long run for the OU. My bet OU will pick 3rd option and do nothing ; it will not pick either plane and commit slow suicide.

    There was a time, when certain airline from ex Yu, had almost perfect position and fleet. Mixture of DC-9, MD82 and A320. Then they had to get rid of the DC-9 (old), and after brakeup of Yu, also MD82 (although nobody knows why, as they could operate them for another 10 years). Then the internal "experts" embodied in captain lobbysts, decided to push for this little canadian cutie. They didn't care, that the cost/benefit ration was extremely poor and that this type (CRJ2) was ideal only for feeder airline. Guess what, after several years, they finaly realised, that it is impossible to be hypbrid airline - part national carrier, part feeder, part charter operator, and even worse, that the fleet, which was reflection of this, became stone arround their necks. So you see, as anon at 10:30 in his lenghty disposal is (again) correctly proving, that fleet comes last, not first, nobody has apparently learned anything....

    A220 being slightly bigger module can bring higher revenues to the airline and probably allows CTN to grow with new routes as the range is better as well.

    Aw...common...Embraer's propose is much better than the concurrency. As Croatia Airlines network doesn't need a plane as big as an Airbus with passengers capacity, neither with range as the A220, or its cost of operation, passengers per seat etc. In Croatia's network range, seat capacity, low costs of operation, aircraft value, aircraft time delivered, Embraers E2-Jet will fit them perfectly. They can even get all the planes delivered in much less time as specified by Embraers CEO. Cause as they don't have orders they can dedicated themselves just to deliver Coratia Airlines planes. Unfortunately E2-Jets program really going bad compared to Airbus A220, which have better range, route flexibility, passengers says it's interior are better, of course airlines will choose a plane which more versatile, which they can stretch their routes whenever they need it. But well someone in Embraer thinks another thing, so let they watch their program die little by little, step by step, as they don't care about the plane short range. Dude all airlines are desperate seeking narrow bodies with long range, like A321XLR, the morons inside Embraer should focus on this, extend its range to say something like 6000km. Once they did it they will see maybe thousands of orders piping up.

    Many predict Embraer's future, saying that its commercial division will go bankrupt. The Brazilian company is no newcomer, to the point of not trying to reinvent itself when necessary. It was not for nothing that it reached the rank of 3rd largest western aircraft manufacturer. Many question the fact that the E2 family is not repeating the commercial success of the E1 family and losing ground to the A220. However, it must be taken into account that Embraer's main product has always been the E175 for the US, its main market, and that with the new stricter environmental rules to be adopted in 2027, Embraer will resume the E175 certification process.

      E175e2 will never fly as it does not meet the MTOW limit in the pilot scope clause for US regionals. Same as the MRJ is dead, the E175e2 is for dreamers in lala land.

      This is why they discount their airplane. It’s a liability. I would never do business with a Brazilian company, there is no business ethics and so much corruption.

    Main issue is not that Embraer is in a very bad shape, but that E2 does not correspond to Croatian Airlines needs in terms of growth for the next 15 years.
    Embraer are not selling in the US and this market is closed to them.same in India, same in Asia, same in EU. What is the future...

    Embraer E2 is obviously cheaper than A220, as it is a smaller and stretched smaller module (old model). Less revenues with E2 and E2 cannot accommodate Croatia airlines growth in the next 15 years along with potential new routes as A220 is a superior product in terms of range.
    E2 is of none intetest to Croatia airlines, as it was none interest to Air France, ITA and so on..
