The Lineage 1000E: an E190 airliner with five rooms

The Lineage 1000E is a business version of the Embraer E190 airliner. Embraer built only 28 between 2007 and 2020, when it stopped selling the type, so a free aircraft needs early planning. The rarity also means each cabin layout is different, and photographs of the actual tail matter more here than for most aircraft.

Inside the Lineage 1000E

The cabin is divided into five zones. These can include a bedroom, a bathroom with running water and a baggage area reachable from inside the cabin. Typical layouts seat about thirteen, with up to nineteen certified.

Clients use it when a delegation, a family and their staff need to travel together, each with a space of their own.

Range

Embraer used much of the space below the floor for extra fuel tanks. That gives a range of about 4,600 nm, nearly double the E190's, with a cruise of about 472 kt.

Which of our routes the Lineage 1000E suits

It suits Lagos to Dubai, about 3,184 nm, and London to Dubai, with a full cabin. Abuja to London is also within range for a delegation.

It is a large aircraft with an airliner's runway and handling needs, so it uses main airports rather than smaller regional fields.

The Lineage 1000E against its class siblings

The ACJ319 and Boeing BBJ fly further and carry more. The Lineage 1000E has less range, but it covers every long route on this site. It is the choice when the group fits within nineteen seats and does not need a Boeing or Airbus.
