Athens-based GainJet Aviation is celebrating strong charter demand for the two latest additions to its fleet - a 48-seat B737-300 and a Phenom 100. "The B737-300 has only just been brought into service but it has generated extremely strong interest and demand among clients," says ceo James McBride. "The Phenom 100 has also been a success."

Client demand for large corporate jets was identified by GainJet Aviation's management team in early 2008 and the resulting search led to the acquisition of the B737-300.

Company president Capt Ramsey Shaban says: "The refurbished galleys have been designed to offer a service which can be enjoyed by passengers who vary from multi-national corporate executives to heads of state. The aircraft has generated a great deal of interest among clients who are looking for a large executive jet with medium range and a comfortable cabin. Every seat onboard has at least 53" pitch."
