MYT ridding of its last 757

Why did MYT’s 767s leave for a year and also howcome they didn’t seek newer 757 as older 757 replacements.

The 763s left to do work for Skyservice over in Canada, where they were more needed than they were with MyTravel, however with the fleet reductions that have happened at MYT, they are needed again.

The 757-200s that were disposed of were very old, and at the time it was believed that MyTravel were moving towards an all-Airbus fleet (which they probably still are), but they kept G-WJAN for the capacity, and also it being the youngest of the lot (with MYT disposing of those 757s with numbers in the sigle-figure range).
It seems the capacity provided by WJAN isnt needed anymore, so it will return to Skyservice and will probably not return.

LGKR – your right, a MYT 767 will operate a few flights from March 07

I know… :rolleyes:

The B767’s are staying because they are operating the routes of the two MYT a330’s which MAY (MAY) still go this time next year.

According to the Jethros website 🙁
So where now for MYT, does this mean the 767s will also go ?

According to info received yesterday, no

Cant see my travel getting rid of there 767 there all fairly young.

I’m pretty sure a MYT767 is to be operating a few NCL-SFB-NCL flights this winter, so I don’t think these will be going just yet.

Remember most of the old MYT 757’s were ex-Eastern Airlines a/c and were some of the very first off the production line and I’m confident that their 767’s come nowhere close to these in terms of age/cycles.
