Turkish Airlines will add two B777-300ERSFs to its fleet

Turkish Airlines is set to expand its operations with the addition of two Boeing B777-300ER passenger aircraft converted into freighters, dubbed ‘The Big Twin’. AerCap has finalized lease agreements for these specialized cargo planes, anticipating deliveries between March and September 2027. Etihad Engineering’s MRO facility in Abu Dhabi will handle the conversion process for both aircraft. This expansion aims to bolster Turkish Airlines' capabilities across Europe and Middle Eastern routes. The move represents a strategic investment designed to meet growing demand within the freight sector.
