Embraer Phenom 300 series has maintained its status of the world's best-selling light jet for 12 consecutive years, while also attaining the best-selling twinjet for the fourth year running, according to data released by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association. To achieve this distinction, the company delivered 63 Phenom 300 series aircraft throughout 2023.

Demonstrating Embraer commitment to innovation and excellence, the Phenom 300 series is the most successful business jet of the past decade, having accrued more than 730 deliveries worldwide and operating in 40 countries. With over 2 million flight hours logged, the Phenom 300 recently became the most-flown aircraft in the United States, with more than 360,000 flights in a 12-month period.

 Michael Amalfitano, President & CEO of Embraer Executive Jets, commented: “The Phenom 300 series continues to demonstrate Embraer’s commitment to delivering the ultimate experience in business aviation. For more than a decade, the aircraft has earned well-deserved recognition and continues to excel in terms of performance, technology, comfort, and support. With our ongoing dedication to our loyal customers, we will continue to develop the program based on customer feedback, industry trends, and new technologies.”

Most recently, Embraer announced a new autothrottle feature that will be available for the Phenom 300E. The optional feature is set to enhance the already single-pilot-friendly cockpit, which includes the highly advanced Prodigy Touch based on Garmin G3000, further enhancing the aircraft’s operational capabilities.

As the fastest light jet in production, the Phenom 300E has a high-speed cruise of 464 knots and a five-occupant range of 2,010 nautical miles (3,724 km) with NBAA IFR reserves. Additionally, the aircraft offers unmatched avionics, including a Runway Overrun Awareness and Alerting System (ROAAS)—the first to be developed and certified in business aviation—as well as Coupled Go-Around, Emergency Descent Mode and more.
