TUIfly is also dropping the .com on their fleet arnt they? The newer TUIfly planes dont seem to have it.
Yes they are.
Apparently the whole TUI Airline group are still trying to push even further away from seat only sales and focus further on their in-house tour operators. They have achieved this well over the past couple of years or so but the removal of the ''.com'' from the livery is also another reason for this.
Obviously, Thomson Airways could be seen as an exception to this as it has a totally new name compared to the rest of the group.
There are only four ex Tfly birds in the Thomson fleet now and they cover part of the Tuifly Nordic program in the winter as well as the UK operation hence the reason the ex FCA birds are covering most of the UK flights.
True and also currently only one of them is fitted with the ex-TOM long-haul interior Y283, the others being the standard Y328 Short haul interior. Unless G-OBYD has been changed back to LH?
