About this aircraft
The ERJ-135 is the smallest ERJ regional jet—often the basis for Legacy 600-era corporate derivatives and dedicated shuttle interiors.
It offers jet speed with a narrower, longer cabin than light business jets. Operators use it for mid-size corporate groups on regional routes where Phenom or Praetor cabins simply cannot absorb the planned headcount. Think shuttle logistics dressed in executive trim.
A regional-jet alternative when passenger count outgrows traditional light and midsize business-jet cabins.
