Do you know how long the Titan 737 is operating for BA to Gatwick? I'm due to fly on the 0645 flight on Sunday 2nd September. I've only flown with them once, they were operating a 757 for Easyjet from Stansted to Malaga in March 2005.

Titan have been covering for BA at gatters for about the last 6 months, some days it's a 733 others a 757, others both.

It's all due to tech problems with the 734 fleet but hats off to BA for bringing Titan in to help

Do you mean recently or are you meaning the one several months ago ?

If its the latter, that bird was flown to LHR and repaired and is now back in active service

There was a BA B734 on the BEALine base at LHR tonight as I landed 27R. Unusual to see them on their old stomping grounds.

Is there a Portuguese outfit called "hi-fly" or something like that?

If so, I was told they'd got the contract.

Who knows though? Could be

I have just had a very pleasant flight on a Titan 757 on charter from Monarch as their own a/c was u/s. Lovely well-spoken cabin crew, very clean aircraft, seats showing signs of heavy wear though.

Will a mod please change the title of this thread?

It is incorrect and pure kite flying.

Hi guys,I'm a LTMA controller.One day last week(can't remember which) there was an A340 operating Gatwick-US,on Titan trip number but the very nice sounding lady pilot didn't use the r/t c/s "ZAP",just the phonetic Alpha Whiskey Charlie. Possibly the Portuguese company mentioned earlier,accent sounded about right.

Couple of weeks ago Hifly operated MOD flight with A340 Calgary-Brize Norton with Titan Flt No. Maybe the Portuguese don't get the batman theme with the callsign and the Titan a/c reggies.
