Bulgaria's Bulgaria Air airline carrier will acquire 9 state-of-the-art Brazilian Embraer jets by the end of 2014, it was announced on Friday.

The new planes will allow Bulgaria Air to increase its weakly frequency of flights to some European destinations and re-launch its flights to Prague, the company's CEO Yanko Georgiev has said, according to the Standart daily.

The first E-190 aircraft is expected to arrive in Bulgaria in March, while three more will arrive by the end of 2011.

The planes are for 108 passengers, including 8 seats in business class and will fly to most of the airline's travel destinations.

In June 2011, Bulgaria's Bulgaria Air airline was officially included in Embraer's portfolio of E-Jets costumers.

Currently, the airliner operates 22 aircrafts to a total of 28 travel destinations.
