Embraer delivers first Praetor 600E to Flexjet

Flexjet has served as fleet launch customer for five Embraer aircraft.

Embraer delivered the first Praetor 600E to Flexjet equipped with Embraer’s Smart Window, a 42-inch 4K OLED touchscreen built into the cabin sidewall.

The delivery is the latest milestone under a $7bn agreement the companies announced in February 2025, covering a firm order for 182 aircraft with options for 30 more.

Flexjet expects to take delivery of its first Praetor 500E in the fourth quarter of 2026, becoming fleet launch customer for that aircraft as well.

“Flexjet has been a trusted strategic partner for more than two decades, and together we share a commitment to delivering an exceptional customer experience through continuous innovation,” said Michael Amalfitano, President and CEO of Embraer Executive Jets.

“This milestone delivery continues a success story we have had with Embraer that began back in 2003,” said Michael Silvestro, Flexjet’s CEO. “As the leader in luxury private aviation, fractional aircraft Owners look to Flexjet to provide access to the world’s most advanced aircraft.”

The Praetor 600E received triple certification from ANAC, the FAA and EASA in April 2026, followed by the Praetor 500E in June 2026.

The aircraft has an intercontinental range of 4,018 nautical miles with four passengers and NBAA IFR reserves, enabling nonstop routes such as London-New York and São Paulo-Miami. Flexjet said all of its Praetor 600Es will be equipped with Starlink Wi-Fi.

Flexjet has served as fleet launch customer for five Embraer aircraft: the Legacy Executive in 2003, the Phenom 300 in 2010, the Legacy 450 in 2016, and the Praetor 500 and Praetor 600 in 2019, ahead of the Praetor 500E and 600E this year.
