Just booked flights with Thomson from Belfast for the summer. The A320 operated from BFS is leased from Skyservice as far as I know for the summer months. So had a little search for pictures of the aircraft, and although the flight is opeated by Thomson Airways, the aircraft is in the First Choice livery with falconholidays stickers (large TUI brand in Northern Ireland, together with First Choice and Thomson).
If the aircraft has been leased for the summer from Canada and recently painted out of the Skyservice livery, why has it not been painted in Thomson livery?? Is it not bizarre to paint an aircraft recently in a livery thats now going to be done away with, especially as it doesn't even have the Thomson Airways name on the side?
