Titan Airways (ZT, London Stansted) has announced the imminent addition of a maiden A318-100 to its fleet. The UK charter and airline sub-charter specialist confirmed the aircraft will be G-EUNB (msn 4039) currently in service for British Airways (BA, London Heathrow).

The twinjet is configured with thirty-two seats for high-end short and long haul travel and is expected to enter revenue service in early June.

"The latest addition is in line with the carrier’s fleet modernisation strategy, which has seen the introduction of three Airbus A320-200s and an Airbus A321-200 over the last four years," Alastair Kiernan, Commercial Director, said. “The A318 is a great fit for Titan as it enables us to offer our clients an even greater choice of aircraft, with a diversity of capacity and range, while retaining commonality with the rest of the A320 family which allows pilots that fly our other A320 aircraft, to also fly the A318.”

According to the ch-aviation aircraft database, Titan Airways also operates three A320-200s, one A321-200, two B737-300(QC)s, one B737-400(F), two B757-200s, and one B767-300(ER).
