Iranian carrier Zagros Airlines has confirmed that it has reached preliminary agreements with Embraer to import 20 135-seat aircraft.
“Our recent talks with Brazil’s Embraer have led to positive results,” Zagros Airlines CEO Hushang Seddiq said. “Zagros announced it is ready to buy 20 aircraft with 135 seats each. The Embraer representative then left for Brazil with a preliminary agreement in order to prepare the final steps,” he added.
The delivery of the aircraft to the airline, however, will require permission from the US.
