Titan Airways celebrates landmark 30th anniversary

2018 sees London Stansted-based charter and airline sub-charter specialist Titan Airways celebrating 30 years of successful operations. Founded in 1988 as a two-man air taxi operation with a single Cessna 404 aircraft, today the carrier has a growing fleet of modern jet aircraft and over 400 staff. It is still led by one of the original founders, chairman Gene Willson, together with his son and managing director Alastair.

The carrier is marking the anniversary with the addition of three Airbus A321 airliners, growing its fleet to a record 14 aircraft. The latest arrivals fulfil the airline's long term strategy of operating more modern, economical and environ-mentally friendly aircraft and it comes on the back of unpreced-ented financial performance in 2017-18 with profits exceeding $11.3m. In April of this year Titan featured in the Sunday Times 2018 BDO Profit Track 100, a league table ranking Britain's top 100 private companies with the fastest-growing profits over the past three years.

Titan operates worldwide passenger and freight flights on behalf of third party carriers, tour operators, cruise lines, corporate customers, premier league and national football teams, film production companies, music tour management firms and government bodies. Operations for other airlines include short, medium and long term wet or damp lease, as well as Titan's signature rapid response 'Go Now' flights. This short notice capability has also been called upon by governmental bodies and has seen the carrier responding to humanitarian disasters worldwide.

Over the years its aircraft have been repainted, recon-figured and even transformed into live music venues for specific projects. Across three decades of flight operations it has received numerous industry awards and attributes its success to its dedicated team of aviation professionals, with whom it will celebrate with a company-wide special anniversary event later in the year.
