ANA Holdings has placed an order for eight incremental E190-E2s, which will be placed with ACMI operator Ibex Airlines (FW, Sendai) and replace that carrier's CRJ700s. The holding said the additional E190-E2s will be used "to expand the ACMI agreement for ANA - All Nippon Airways flights." "ANA will act as the marketing carrier, responsible for route planning and sales. Ibex will act as the operating carrier, responsible for flight operations. Ibex Airlines currently operates nine CRJ700s under the ANA Connection brand, though the aircraft are flown under the carrier's code and commercial risk.
