The Portuguese airline EuroAtlantic Airways has retired the last Boeing 737-800 aircraft. The carrier has thus become a pure WIdebody operator.
EuroAtlantic Airways had three Boeing 737-800s in its fleet at peak times. At times they also flew with two Boeing 757-200. Four B767-300ER and two B777-200ER are now operated. You no longer have narrow bodies.
According to CH-Aviation.com, the retired Boeing 737-800 is the former CS-TQU. This was temporarily shut down at the beginning of the corona pandemic after maintenance was carried out in Budapest. On March 3, 2021, this machine was transferred to Castellón for Long Time Storage.
On July 14, 2022, the medium-haul jet took off again for Shannon. After maintenance work, this Boeing 737-800 is to be transferred to the United States of America as N30646. The aircraft is owned by KDAC Aircraft Leasing and was originally delivered to Transavia. The machine has flown for EuroAtlantic Airways since 2012.
