Embraer announced that the Company has signed a long-term Pool Program Agreement with Mongolian Hunnu Air to support a wide range of repairable components for the airline’s recently leased fleet of E190. Hunnu Air is the first E190 operator in Mongolia and took delivery of its first E190 this year in May.
The Pool Agreement includes full repair coverage for components and parts as well as the access to a large stock of components at Embraer’s distribution center, which will support the start of the airline’s E190 operation.
“We are the first airline in Mongolia operating E-Jet series of airplane. By signing this contract, we would like to strengthen our partnership with Embraer not only for its industry-leading products, but also for its strong services and support network,” said MUNKHJARGAL Purevjal, CEO of Hunnu Air. “We believe the direct support from the manufacturer will secure a highly reliable operation of our E190 fleet, guarantee the competitiveness and availability of the aircraft, which is critical to our daily flight operation and will also improve the passengers’ satisfaction.”

“We’re happy to have Hunnu Air joining the Pool Program and provide the most efficient and reliable solutions to their E190 fleet,” said Johann Bordais, president & CEO, Embraer Services & Support. “It is always our mission to offer the most comprehensive portfolio of services and support solutions with the highest return-benefits to all customers, and the Pool Program that currently supports more than 40 airlines worldwide is among the best products we have.
