HISTORY ASPECTS:
The Air France E190-100STD, registered as F-HBLR, is part of the airline's regional fleet, operated by its subsidiary HOP! Air France. The Embraer E190 series, introduced to Air France's fleet in the early 2010s, represents a shift towards more efficient and versatile aircraft for short to medium-haul routes. With a capacity of around 100 passengers, the E190-100STD is designed to provide a balance of comfort, efficiency, and performance, making it ideal for connecting regional airports across France and Europe.
F-HBLR, like other E190s in the Air France fleet, has been instrumental in enhancing connectivity between major hubs and smaller cities, supporting the airline's strategy to offer frequent, reliable services on routes with moderate passenger demand.

It features a two-class cabin configuration, providing a comfortable travel experience with modern amenities and in-flight services synonymous with Air France's reputation for quality.
Throughout its operational life, F-HBLR has served numerous destinations, playing a critical role in maintaining Air France’s extensive network. The aircraft's versatility allows it to operate from smaller regional airports with shorter runways, while its performance and reliability ensure that it meets the rigorous demands of frequent flights. This adaptability has been crucial in supporting Air France’s regional operations, particularly during peak travel seasons and in responding to changing market dynamics.
