MyTravel Airways has begun assessing the Airbus A350 and Boeing 787 as it looks again at its requirements following last year’s successful fi nancial restructuring, writes Kieran Daly.
The UK leisure carrier was forced to slash its fleet by one-third as it battled to avoid collapse, but is now looking to add capacity and has seen its business evolve increasingly into a medium-haul model.Director of fl ight operations Steve Solomon indicates that early availability is likely to be important, but says: “If the 787 does what they say it will, then it will be a very good aircraft.”
The evaluation would cover the requirements of MyTravel’s UK and Scandinavian divisions,which currently operate A330 widebodies.
