Ninety seats of regional jet. Overhead bins barely fit a laptop bag. But it's cheap to operate and there are hundreds of them.
Fun fact
The CRJ-900 shares 95% commonality with the CRJ-700, so pilots and mechanics can switch between them.
How to spot one
Longest CRJ variant. Still narrow (2+2 seating). T-tail, rear engines. Being retired in favor of E175s.
