There are currently 4 733 aircraft in DY's fleet with winglets they are LN-KKX, LN-KHA, LN-KHB and LN-KHC. Last I heard was that these 4 aircraft will be the last 4 733's to be retired from the fleet with a exit from service date sometime during the early part of the W13 season. It is possible that these aircraft therefore could be sold to LS to enter service with LS in early S14.

I have been looking at the CAA aircraft database and have found 3 uk registered 733's that have in the last two weeks had there status updated and are now showing as being in the process of having there ownership changed. The aircraft are:
G-TOYJ - Ex BMI Baby. Status updated to ownership in the process of changing on 3rd January. Aircraft 16 yrs 5 mths old.
G-THOP - Ex Thomson Airways. Status updated to ownership in the process of changing on 13th January. Aircraft 14 yrs 11 mths old.
G-TOYM - Ex BMI Baby. Status updated to ownership in the process of changing on 3rd January. Aircraft 14 yrs 7 mths old.
All 3 aircraft are currently stored at Lasham. Wonder if these are the 3 733's due to join the fleet.

That is always a possibility. However I think 2 of the aircraft will be added to facilitate the new ALC base.
