Nobody is forcing carriers to schedule beyond their available resources.
You do have question TUIs planning since the summer season kicked off from the start of May:-
B789 SE-RFZ operated 01/05/22 - 11/05/22, now in Amman for maintenance
B788 G-TUIH at Luton on maintenance (10/05/22)
B738 G-FDZZ returned from Sunwing lease 07/05/22, at St Athan, not yet re-entered service
B738 G-TAWD returned from Sunwing lease 14/05/22, at Gatwick, not yet re-entered service
B738 G-TAWM returned from Sunwing lease 24/04/22, at St Athan, not yet re-entered service
B738 G-TAWN returned from Sunwing lease 12/05/22, at Birmingham, not yet re-entered service
B738 G-TAWO returned from Sunwing lease 05/05/22, at Brussels, not yet re-entered service
B738 G-TAWP returned from TUI Fly Germany lease 28/04/22, at St Athan, not yet re-entered service
B738 G-TUKP returned from Sunwing lease 26/04/22, at Gatwick, not yet re-entered service
You have to question why the 787 maintenance couldn't have been done in April, and why its taking so long to get the 738s above back in service?
also the leased Sunwing B738 C-FWGH at Cardiff, has now gone tech after only operating one flight, and thus the Paphos flight has been delayed by a day at least!
the joys of running an airline!
