Hi all,
I was told though my friend who works in the charter industry that Titan Airways (ZT) have recently acquired a 767-300 ER in an all Y 265 seat config. Looks like a nice aircraft with IFE and leather seats with 34 inch pitch. first delivered 2003 so will have the new 777 interior (?).
Does anyone know what Titan will use this jet for. Is there a significant market for charter / wet lease widebodies?

There is, especially in Europe. Right now it's down somewhat (due to these months being 'quiet'), but even now there is quite some work. If you can do it full-time with one aircraft, I don't know...

Hey,
I don't know about demand but I had the pleasure of flying home from Ibiza with Titan in June. Thomas Cook subbed there flight with a B757 from Titan. The crew where excellent, service was of an extremely high standard, the aircraft was very comfortable and fitted out to a high standard. The bathrooms even had premium amenities from The White Company in the all economy layout.
The B767 has PTVs in every seat and previously operated with Skymark in Japan;

I was in Marrakech two nights last week and there were a total of four companies there with the easy call sign including Titan twice. There may not be the demand for the capacity of the 763 right now, but we're paying for all of it.
