Titan Airways gets first E190LR regional jet

UK charter airline Titan Airways (ZT/AWC) has completed the purchase of its first Embraer E190LR regional jet registered as G-POWX.

Titan has a core fleet of Airbus A320 family aircraft but the addition of the E190LR gives it more flexibility for smaller charters in its 13 strong fleet.

The aircraft is configured in a two-class layout with nine business class seat and 88 economy class seats although Titan plans to utilise a variable cabin arrangement including an all economy 100 seat cabin.

Alex Harrington, Titan Airways Commercial Director, commented: “We are delighted to  introduce the Embraer 190LR into our fleet.  This modern aircraft will allow us to offer our clients a more fuel-efficient option when serving the 70-seat + charter market.  It has a spacious cabin and nicely fills the gap for smaller capacity charter and lease requests in the UK and Europe.”   

“Boasting an impressive range of 2,400nm and the capability to operate to restrictive airfields, such as London City, Florence, Berne, and San Sebastien, we are confident the Embraer 190LR will be a popular addition to our fleet.  We are already seeing considerable interest and bookings from airline and charter customers,”

The Embraer E190LR (Long Range) is a regional jet designed and manufactured by Brazilian aerospace company Embraer. It is part of the E-Jet family and is tailored for medium-capacity routes, typically seating around 98 to 114 passengers in a two-class configuration. The “LR” variant offers extended range compared to the standard E190, with a maximum range of approximately 4,537 km (2,450 nautical miles), making it ideal for longer regional and short-haul international routes. It is powered by two General Electric CF34-10E engines and is known for its efficiency, comfort, and flexibility for airlines operating in challenging network environments.

G-POWX was delivered to Air Astana in 2012 as P4-KCG where it served until 2021 before spending some time on lease to Myanmar Airlines as XY-ALU. It briefly returned to to P4-KCG where it operated for TrueNoord before being temporarily stored in 2024. The aircraft was flown to Stansted in June 2025 ahead of its entry into the Titan fleet.
