MIAT’s new CRJ-700 aircraft recently arrived in Mongolia after completing a long journey from Johannesburg, South Africa. This Canada-built Bombardier jet marks an important step for MIAT Mongolian Airlines. Therefore, the airline continues to grow and modernize its fleet to serve more passengers better. Consequently, this aircraft will enhance MIAT’s regional connectivity and increase flight reliability.
The new jet joins MIAT’s first CRJ-700, named Mazaalai. For example, Mazaalai flies routes between Mongolia and Hohhot, the capital of Inner Mongolia, China. It also serves several domestic destinations. Similarly, the newly arrived aircraft, named Irves, will focus on short-haul routes. MIAT plans to use it to improve domestic flights and expand connections to nearby regions.
One major advantage of MIAT’s new CRJ-700 is its fuel efficiency. Specifically, it burns roughly 1.5 tonnes of fuel per hour of flight. Even better, the plane uses only 21.4 liters of fuel per seat. Thus, this low fuel consumption helps MIAT reduce costs and limit its environmental footprint.
Additionally, passengers will enjoy a more comfortable cabin. The aircraft offers wider seats, more legroom, and larger overhead storage compartments. MIAT’s new CRJ-700 is powered by advanced GE CF34 turbofan engines. These engines generate up to 61.3 kilonewtons of thrust during takeoff.
As a result, this power ensures smooth performance, even in Mongolia’s varied and challenging geography. Furthermore, the aircraft’s aerodynamic design improves its range and fuel economy.
Besides efficiency and performance, MIAT’s new CRJ-700 supports the airline’s environmental goals. It produces fewer greenhouse gas emissions compared to older planes. This clearly matches MIAT’s commitment to greener, more sustainable operations. Therefore, the airline prioritizes modern, fuel-efficient aircraft in its fleet renewal plans.
Overall, MIAT’s new CRJ-700 strengthens the airline’s network and sustainability efforts. With two CRJ-700 jets now in service, MIAT can meet growing passenger demand more effectively. Consequently, travelers can expect better service, greater comfort, and more eco-friendly flights. In conclusion, this latest addition signals MIAT’s dedication to a modern, sustainable future in aviation.
