Embraer’s Praetor 600E has earned triple certification from Brazil’s ANAC, the FAA and EASA.

The certification follows the unveiling of the new aircraft, alongside the Praetor 500E, in February 2026, when both were introduced as the first evolution of the Praetor family. This milestone confirms the Praetor 600E’s readiness for global operations, meeting strict safety and performance requirements while introducing a new era of cabin experience.

“Achieving triple certification from ANAC, FAA and EASA is an important milestone for the Praetor 600E,” reveals Michael Amalfitano, president and CEO of Embraer Executive Jets. “Since announcing the aircraft in February, new customer sales and market feedback have been exceptionally strong. This triple certification is a clear validation of Embraer’s engineering excellence and accelerates our path to entry into service for customers worldwide.”

With an intercontinental range of 4,018nm, based on four passengers and NBAA IFR reserves, the Praetor 600E enables nonstop missions between major city pairs such as London-New York and Sao Paulo-Miami. Complementing this performance capability, the latest model introduces a completely reimagined cabin, featuring all-new Embraer-designed seating, an advanced CMS and next-generation technology that elevates comfort, productivity and connectivity.

The Praetor 600E introduces industry-first cabin technology with a 42‑inch, 4K OLED touchscreen Smart Window, an optional feature delivering a new level of functionality and immersion. This Embraer‑exclusive touchscreen enables video conferencing, high-resolution content streaming and real-time external views via three externally mounted cameras. With the option to configure a divan across from the Smart Window, the cabin becomes a versatile environment for meetings, movies and other entertainment.

The super midsize jet also features Embraer’s comprehensive avionics suite, including class‑exclusive full fly‑by‑wire technology with active turbulence reduction, the Embraer Enhanced Vision System (E2VS) and the Runway Overrun Awareness and Alerting System (ROAAS), reducing pilot workload, enhancing situational awareness and supporting smoother flights while expanding operational flexibility to a broader range of destinations.

The Praetor 500E is expected to receive triple certification by the end of 2026. For new orders, deliveries for both aircraft are planned to begin in 2029.
