Hey all,
Think the CRJ 900 will be able to win any substantial new orders in the future? I believe this is the break down of the operators so far….
Mesa-45
Styrian Spirit-1 (on order)
Lufthansa-12 (on order)
Air Nostrum- 1 in operation.. (On order ?)
I understand that the numbers may be slightly higher as technically the CRJ-705 used by Air Canada Jazz is a -900 series but with 75 seats. But do you think that Bombardier will be successful at winning substantial orders against a very successful lined offered by Embraer??

Sorry to bring this up again, but Atlasjet have ordered 3 of these aircraft. Still abit of life in the order books yet!

The CRJ900 is a dead duck. Any growth in the 70+ seat market will be with the Embraer E-series or the Bombardier C-series (if it ever sees the light of day). Bombardier wasted time stretching their CRJ-200 airframe instead of creating a whole new aircraft. The CRJ700/900 can’t hold a candle to the E170.
