Paul Kenny, Commercial Manager, The Gambia Experience, commented: “We are proud to be increasing our cooperation with Titan Airways. We receive regular praise regarding the crew, comfort and attention to detail of the airline from our Corsica customers and we know that Titan will look after our Gambia clients just as impeccably.”

Alongside the Banjul flight series, the Gatwick based A320 unit will operate weekend ski flights to the French Alps. Outside of these dual commitments, the aircraft will be available for further tour operator requirements, ad hoc charter and airline sub charter roles.
