Titan Aviation Leasing, the joint venture between Titan Aviation Holdings (a subsidiary of Atlas Air Worldwide) and Bain Capital, acquired a Boeing 777-300ER aircraft on long-term lease to China Airlines (CAL). The transaction closed on Dec. 24, 2025. Titan will manage the aircraft, manufacturer serial number (MSN) 41823.
The acquisition expands Titan’s growing portfolio of modern, long-haul widebody aircraft and supports China Airlines’ continued network growth. Through the transaction, Titan’s presence deepens in the Asia-Pacific region in partnership with a leading flag carrier.
“This transaction reflects Titan’s growth strategy and our focus on enabling airline partners to scale with confidence,” Eamonn Forbes, chief commercial officer of Titian Aviation Leasing, said. “By investing in in-service, high-quality aircraft for established operators like China Airlines, Titan continues to generate durable cash flows as we deliver certainty, continuity and long-term value for our customers and our portfolio.”
Aviation Capital Group (ACG) facilitated Titan’s timely acquisition of the aircraft from Korea Investments & Securities.
The Boeing 777-300ER is a highly capable and in-demand aircraft type, with a range of up to approximately 7,370 nautical miles and high-capacity, twin-engine efficiency. That combination lets airlines operate dense, long-haul routes nonstop while maintaining competitive seat-mile economics. Its proven reliability record and commonality within the 777 family also support strong dispatch performance and maintenance efficiency across fleets.
