Strange they have deactivated door 2 aft of the wing (was Door 3 position on A321ceo & earlier neos)

(new Airbus 321 Neo cabin flex options have a range of overwing exit and door 2 options to enable up to 235/240 pax)

In this Titan config Pax capacity would be limited to around 189 I think - not like a 220 seat 757
But I guess if they are doing Long Haul with this type then around 189 pax would vastly improve payload/fuel

321Neo VIP RTW trips
 

The first Airbus A321neoLR for Titan Airways is nearing completion and delivery. Sporting a striking all-black/burgundy livery the final touches are still to be made as the aircraft should operate for TCS World Travel in a VIP configuration which can seat 48-64 passengers in flat bed comfort.

Round the World holidays with prices from just $99000 with itineraries starting from FLL such as to Machu Picchu, Easter Island, Tahiti Bora Bora, Fiji, Solomon Islands, Great Barrier Reef, Siem Reap, Angkor Wat, Jaipur, Agra, The Maldives, Serengeti Ngorongoro Crater, Petra Wadi Rum, Marrakech, back to MCO

Previously 757's of MON ZAP AMM TOM Icelandic, & Four Seasons often flew these VIP RTW trips for TCS Four Seasons, plus also for Abercrombie & Kent, Captains Choice, and Nat Geo Tours...

The A321NeoLR Titan flights will feature - Throughout your journey, you are accompanied by an elite team of Four Seasons professionals who empower you to follow your passions. With one crew member to every six passengers, the Four Seasons-trained staff takes the time to get to know you, making sure every moment on the jet is a delight. An onboard executive chef designs and prepares exclusive in-flight menus using only the freshest ingredients and local flavors throughout the journey. For extra peace of mind, a journey physician travels with you to meet any needs along the way.

Onboard Executive Chef
Working closely with each local Four Seasons culinary team, Executive Chef Kerry Sear calls on his decades of experience to create innovative in-flight menus that highlight regional flavors and specialties, using fresh ingredients gathered throughout the trip. A former executive chef at Four Seasons Hotel Seattle, Sear is the director of food and beverage for TCS World Travel.

Flight Crew
An experienced 14-person crew will accompany you from start to finish. The crew includes three pilots, an engineer, an operations officer and an onboard executive chef, along with eight Four Seasons-trained flight attendants.

Journey Physician/Doctor
Enjoy peace of mind knowing that if any medical issue should arise throughout the trip, you’ll be under the capable care of a personal on-board doctor. Should you become seriously ill en route, the journey physician will be able to liaise with local doctors at your request and, if necessary, your medical providers, to assist in determining what further care you may require.

If it is anything like the TAG 757 operation, bountiful spares and a gifted engineer accompanying the tour?

Yes, the TAG 757 has been flying for TCS and Four Seasons - Not sure if they are still using it but some of their 2021 RTW trips are listed for both A321 and 757.

My pal a 757/767 skipper for TOM at BRS did a couple of the RTW trips, I think they were for National Geographic Travel and started and finished in the USA for wealthy clients.
Heavy crews and a flying spanner of course...He and the crew had a wonderful time.

Very brave if they only send one engineer if they encounter a big job or sickness etc. Tom/Mon always had 2 for this reason.

TAG have ended the lease of the B757 and is parked up in the states, my guess awaiting conversion or part out.

G-XATX
 

G-XATW A321-LR has arrived at Stansted

G-POWH is going to storage at Castellon,

APOLOGIES.. not STORAGE

Just arrived in CDT

POWH currently en route to Istanbul according to FR 24?

If I were a betting man, I would say POWH is taking Villarreal to Azerbaijan for the Europa League. Thats just my haunch, I'm not just going to state something as fact with nothing to back it up.....:rolleyes:

Edit... Turns out they are playing the Azerbaijani side in Istanbul

Oh wait, heres a video of Villarreal boarding the aircraft in Castellon. Why post utter garbage about it going in to storage?

Quite right Monty, you have only to look at the sporting fixtures and do a little homework and it all drops into place. Tottenham are playing in Belgium today and Titan flew them from Stansted yesterday.

Actually, Tottenham flew the 2Excel B733 from Stansted into Brussels.
