Embraer delivers 41 business jets in a record Q3

Embraer handed over 41 executive jets in Q3 2026, helping the company reach its best third-quarter delivery total ever across all divisions.

  • 41 executive jets delivered in Q3 2026
  • 66 total aircraft delivered, up 6% year over year
  • 175 total aircraft delivered in the first nine months of 2026
  • 2026 outlook kept at 160–170 executive jets
  • Executive Aviation deliveries were flat versus Q3 2025

Embraer reported 66 aircraft deliveries in the third quarter of 2026, its strongest Q3 on record. The business-jet arm accounted for 41 of those handovers, split between the company’s light and midsize executive aircraft.

The headline number was not a sudden spike in business jets. Embraer said executive-jet deliveries were flat year over year, while total company deliveries rose 6%. Through the first nine months of 2026, Embraer delivered 175 aircraft, 14% ahead of the same period in 2025.

For private aviation, the important detail is steadiness. Embraer has been trying to smooth production so deliveries are less bunched at year-end. Keeping its full-year executive-jet guidance at 160 to 170 aircraft suggests the maker still sees enough supply-chain and customer momentum to hit its plan.
