JAN 08, 2004 (newstodate): TNT has decided to add another batch of five Boeing 737-300
aircraft to its European air network.
The company introduced this aircraft type in June, 2003, with a second B737 entering service during the first week of December.
The five aircraft that will be leased for five years by TNT Airways from GE Capital Aviation Services (GECAS) will replace chartered aircraft currently operating in the TNT Express air network.
The new B737s will be phased in over the
next four years - two will join the fleet in 2004, with further aircraft added in 2005, 2006 and 2007.
TNT also has options to lease a further five B737s to accommodate planned expansion of the company's European air network to an expected 67 gateways by 2005.
