Embraer E190 Best Seats Guide 2026

The Embraer E190 seats 96–114 passengers in a 2-2 layout with no middle seats. JetBlue is the largest US operator. Like the E175, every seat is either a window or an aisle — making it one of the most democratic regional aircraft layouts in commercial aviation.

JetBlue Mint front rows (select E190 routes)
JetBlue's E190 Mint product (where available) offers lie-flat seats on transcon routes — exceptional value on a narrowbody.
Exit rows (rows 13–14 typically)
