B737-200 in Europe

[Johnny Tightlips]

Hi all
I am just wondering if anyone could help me with info regarding current B737-200 operations in Europe. It has been a dream of mine for a long time to fly on one but unfortunately I missed out on Ryanair and European Aviation Air Charter. Even though I am currently a pilot on the B738 I would swap it for a 200 tomorrow if I could! I would appreciate any info. Thanks

Aviogenex and Cityline Hungary have both been operating pax flights in the last few months.

Aviogenex seem to be be doing IT charters and subcharters, and I think Cityline Hungary's aircraft was Italy based

Good luck

You could try Tajikistan Airlines, which flies Istanbul-Baku on a Tuesday en route to Dushanbe with a 737-200, so I understand.

Sure that Cityline's machine takes pax?

They are primarily a cargo company and their website indicates a palletised 737-200. They have had night cargo contracts in Italy in the past few years.

I guess it could be a QC aircraft?

The Hungarian aircraft is a QC (originally ex Transavia) but I think it only operates as a freighter, primarily operating within Italy (based Bergamo I think).

It used to be on European Air Charter's AOC (when it was on the French register, but still with the same owners) but I do not recall it ever doing any passenger flights then.
