Embraer ERJ-190: Jet Blue (Reg# N323JB) 1:400 Diecast Model Plane by Gemini Jets

The JetBlue Embraer E190-100IGW, registered as N323JB, holds a special place in JetBlue’s fleet as part of the airline’s early investment in versatile and efficient regional jets. Delivered in the mid-2000s, the E190 series allowed JetBlue to expand its operations beyond major hubs to connect smaller cities and regional airports, which was key to building a comprehensive route network. With a seating capacity suited to mid-sized markets, the E190 enabled JetBlue to operate profitable routes where larger aircraft would have been less practical. N323JB, like others in the fleet, became a familiar sight on popular East Coast routes and shorter transcontinental flights.
The E190’s operational flexibility was well-suited to JetBlue’s strategy of connecting underserved markets, and N323JB regularly flew routes from New York’s JFK and Boston Logan airports, linking passengers to destinations like Portland, Maine, and Richmond, Virginia. Known for its two-by-two seating configuration, the E190 provided JetBlue passengers with a more comfortable experience, especially compared to the narrow layouts of other regional aircraft. JetBlue equipped its E190 fleet, including N323JB, with in-flight entertainment screens and complimentary snacks, raising the standard of service for regional travel and enhancing JetBlue’s reputation for customer satisfaction.
N323JB has also demonstrated JetBlue's commitment to operational efficiency and innovation in the airline industry. As part of the E190 fleet, it has played a role in JetBlue’s efforts to implement more sustainable aviation practices, including optimizing fuel consumption and reducing emissions. This aircraft and its counterparts have contributed significantly to JetBlue’s network flexibility, allowing the airline to adapt to evolving travel demands and solidify its position in a highly competitive market.
