Aircraft Details
Current Registration : 4R-ALG
MSN : 404
Previous registration : G-WWBB
First Flight : 09/05/2001
Engines : Rolls Royce Trent 772B
Type : A330-243
The aircraft is due to enter service in July ( or earlier ) and is scheduled to operate at least three weekly flights to London among others – replacing some A340-300s on this 12 weekly route. This could mean that the aircraft may have a seating configuration different to the current A330s in fleet.
The other ex bmi A330, G-WWBM, will soon be subleased to Turkish Airlines. 4R-ALG is currently at Manchester, MAN pending delivery.

Do you know the 4R-ALG’s lease period?
Sorry this info is not public. But I’d guess something from 2 – 5 years.
