The airliner will be produced in a two-class configuration with capacity for 138 economy passengers and 12 business-class passengers.
The aircraft will replace Yemenia’s existing fleet of single-aisle and wide-body aircraft, and expand its regional services to the Gulf States, Middle East, Africa, India and southern Europe.
Yemenia chairman and CEO Abdulkhalek Al-Kadi said the buy would add to their modernisation programme.
“Very soon, we will have a totally new-generation fleet, which will strengthen our competitiveness,” he said.
