Titan Aviation Leasing Completes Acquisition of One Boeing 777-300ER on Lease to Philippine Airlines
DUBLIN, Oct. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Titan Aviation Leasing (“Titan”), the joint venture between Titan Aviation Holdings, Inc., a subsidiary of Atlas Air Worldwide, and Bain Capital, today announced the acquisition of one Boeing 777-300ER aircraft. The aircraft, manufacturer serial number (MSN) 61735, is currently on long-term lease to Philippine Airlines, the flag carrier of the Philippines. Titan will manage the asset.
This acquisition advances Titan's long-haul widebody strategy and supports growth in markets where demand for efficient, high-capacity aircraft remains strong. By acquiring an in-service aircraft on lease to Philippine Airlines, a well-established carrier, Titan adds durable cash flows and deepens its presence in the Asia–Pacific region.
“We are pleased to support the growth of Philippine Airlines,” said Eamonn Forbes, Chief Commercial Officer, Titan Aviation Leasing. “This transaction reflects Titan’s disciplined capital deployment strategy while enhancing geographic and customer diversification.”
The 777-300ER is a highly capable and in-demand aircraft type, with a range of up to approximately 7,370 nautical miles and high-capacity, twin-engine efficiency. That combination lets airlines operate dense, long-haul routes nonstop while maintaining competitive seat-mile economics. Its proven reliability record and commonality within the 777 family also support strong dispatch performance and maintenance efficiency across fleets.
