Currently two in Luton, one in Amman, one in Abu Dhabi and another en route to AUH which I assume is bringing the other one back and in the meantime Air Tanker on BHX-MBJ and two Wamos on Gatwick flights. I assume they have had to go with the flow re hangar time availability?

I think there are two off to Adu Dhabi now. With the local airline being very busy with an event currently I sure they have cheap capacity for accepting any engineering work.
With one 787 still in storage in US desert sunshine, this should some up current demand.
The 787 does still demand alot of work to keep airworthy.
Can't confirm though whether these are short term or planned leases.
