Can a 777/787/330/350 get off Luton's runway such a distance?
It's a big difference from the Silverjet with limited number of seats/baggage.
Didn't TUI once go to Melbourne with 767s but with 2 stops?
Monarch did some charters with 757s down to Kenya I think and US but that is classed as narrow body and the 757 was very good with such missions, something 321XLR could do?
Starter strip required on runway 25/07?
TUI do it from a shorter Bristol strip (although the Wx very occasionally catches them out and they have to stop at Manchester)
