About the short-wing Embraer E175
Embraer’s planning manual lists a 26-meter wingspan (85 feet 4 inches) with the original winglets. With the extended wingtips it lists 28.65 meters (93 feet 11 inches). The manual gives the same overall length for both versions, so a longer wingspan does not mean more room inside.
Seating capacity
Embraer illustrates a 76-seat layout with two different row spacings and a denser 88-seat layout for the E175. The numbers describe cabin examples for the model. Check the operating airline’s seat map to see how many seats are on your flight.
Cabin layout
In Embraer’s E175 seating diagrams, most rows have two seats on each side of a single aisle. In those rows, each seat is by the window or the aisle. The airline can choose different row spacing and cabin sections, so use the seat map for your flight to locate your row.
How to recognize a short-wing Embraer E175
Look at the wingtips when you have a clear view of the wings. The original winglets span less distance across the aircraft than the extended tips on the later version. A photo taken at an angle can make this hard to judge. The registration can help you verify the aircraft’s configuration.
Variants and related aircraft
The FAA lists the short-wing ERJ-170-200 as E75S and the long-wing version as E75L. It assigns E275 to the E175-E2. The name E175 on an itinerary does not specify which original wing version is scheduled.
Frequently asked questions
Does the short-wing E175 have fewer seats?
The wingspan does not determine the seat count. Embraer’s drawings show the same overall aircraft length for both wing versions. The airline’s seat map tells you how the cabin is configured.
Which radar code is for the E175 with the original winglets?
Use E75S for the short-wing E175. The FAA uses E75L for the version with longer wings.
