There is usually a 757 at BHX but the last two days it has been covering for one of the EMA 738's.
Also at the end of May the 757 was often on one the BHX 738 schedules, whether this was covering for tech, crew or ATC delays, I can't be sure.
I have noticed TUI tend to position the aircraft to wherever the problem is whereas often Thomas Cook bus the passengers wherever the spare is, if it is fairly close or logistically possible of course (crew hours etc)
