Lithuania's GetJet eyes more widebodies for long-haul push

Lithuanian ACMI and charter carrier GetJet Airlines is looking at adding further widebodies, after signing a contract to operate its first long-haul flights with an Airbus A330 on services linking Warsaw to Toronto. The charter carrier took delivery of its first widebody earlier this year and began its first services to Canada in September under a contract with Canadian Sunwing Airlines. Those flights are operated with Airbus narrowbodies. It has now signed a contract to operate its A330 on flights between Warsaw and Toronto for LOT. In support of its strategic expansion in North America, the airline is working to receive Maltese AOC approval at the beginning of next year. Malta's FAA Category 1 safety rating status would enable GetJet to serve the US market. <br/>
