The June 2026 issue of Airliner World takes readers from the flight deck to the desert, from the Caribbean to Cyprus, and from the cabins of tomorrow to the airline crises of today. We join SunExpress at London/Gatwick for the unveiling of its striking new ‘Eagle’ livery and speak to commercial director Helmut Wölfel, before reflecting on the MD-11’s fading role as the iconic trijet moves deeper into its operational twilight. This month, we also examine what defines a challenging ‘Category C’ airport, recall the remarkable return of a Boeing 747-400 from storage at Victorville, and report from United Airlines’ major passenger experience showcase. Elsewhere, interCaribbean Airways CEO Trevor Sadler discusses the colourful carrier’s island-hopping network, while our Aircraft Interiors Expo 2026 coverage reveals the latest innovations heading for future cabins. Also inside, we investigate the complex aviation fallout from the war in Iran, chart the rise and fall of the original Cyprus Airways, and look at how Aer Lingus has shaped its modern identity as it prepares to mark 90 years of flying.

The December 2020 edition of Airliner World takes off for a jam-packed trijet special as we commemorate not one, but two 50th anniversaries of the legendary Lockheed L-1011 TriStar and McDonnell Douglas DC-10. the editorial team provides a detailed history of the TriStar, from design concept to airline service history. Then, we look at its arch-rival, the DC-10, where Thomas Haynes chats to a retired former training captain on the type. We continue the trijet theme as we look at the venerable Boeing 727 which formed the backbone of Donald Trump’s brief airline stint. Elsewhere we head to Melbourne for a retrospective look at the type in service ‘down under’. Finally, we take a trip to North Korea to sample some of its Soviet relics, including the venerable Tupolev Tu-154. Also inside, we gain an exclusive interview with Saudi Arabia’s first female airline pilot, analyse two Indian carriers as they arrive at London/Heathrow, consider the prospect of a ‘Flybe 2.0’, chart the ATL90 Accountant’s history, investigate the Flying-V concept and provide a photographic overview of Spain’s Teruel boneyard.
