EDITION #11 Airbus A330-200 G-OMYT

It was the end of the 20th century and our latest aircraft, the Airbus A330, departed Toulouse ready for two decades of holiday travel. MSN 301 started life first with Airtours and went back and forth with Premiair and MyTravel over the next few years. It was assigned the registration G-MOJO during this period of time. As Austin Power would say about mojo ….. “Yeah baby!“

Records show that it was re-registered as G-OMYT during 2003 while under MyTravel but only a few years later it was leased to the Indonesian carrier, Garuda.

With a new Thomas Cook livery in 2008, the plane set off to serve the British public once again. Holiday makers would fly to far reaching destinations. However, the sun was setting on Thomas Cook and after 178 years the firm went into liquidation in September 2019.

The three A330’s; G-MDBD, G-MLJL and our 11th Edition G-OMYT were all stored at Manchester awaiting a buyer. Unfortunately, no one came forward and in the end all were scrapped. The iconic livery was gone but we had the chance to save some pieces from the dark grey lettering that adorned the side of the aircraft.

There will be coasters and cufflinks available from G-OMYT. Stay tuned for updates for the possibility of a small run of keychains.
