Virgin Nigeria has taken delivery of its first Embraer 190, one of 10 regional jets ordered by the airline last year. The aircraft is configured with a two-class, 96-seat layout. Virgin Nigeria's aircraft also features a Thales Avionics in-flight entertainment system in individual seats. It will use the twinjet on domestic and local services, feeding the carrier's international flights from Lagos. Virgin Nigeria's regional jet order comprised three E-190s and seven E-170s, plus options and purchase rights for 14 further aircraft.
