Insights

One of the main regional jets used in the United States since the early 2000s, especially for Delta Connection and other regional feeders.

Not rare, hundreds of CRJ-900s in service, Delta Connection is a major operator.

Record Flights

Commonly used for short- to medium-haul U.S. domestic flights, no notable record flights for the type.

Safety & Events

The CRJ family has had some incidents, but the -900 variant has a generally strong safety record and is considered reliable.

Gradual phase-out with rise of Embraer E-Jets, but still widely in service as of 2024.
