Thomson Airways

[LBIA]

Think I read elsewhere that the VIP configured Boeing 757 operating the round of the world tour for TCS and Starquest Expeditions has gone tech.
So Thomson are sending the Boeing 767-300's over to cover the flights.

[garry8g]

G-TUIK currently on route to Montego Bay from Manchester (BY136), it was supposed to be heading to LGW today.
It must be covering that flight, due to the delayed BY195 from Puerto Vallarta, so straight into service from Manchester.

TUIK is actually doing about 3 MAN flights. Same happened with TUIJ, it's EIS flights were from MAN.

G-FDZT-ZZ and G-TAWA-WW have the sky interior.

And I believe all other 737s (and 757s) have the LED refurb.

In recent years I have travelled on G-FDZB and G-FDZR and can confirm both of these have the new lighting. I have also been on G-TAWB, G-TAWC and G-TAWH which all, of course, have the sky interior.

Hope this helps!

Is there any news on the last 4 767-300's, now they have nearly all their dreamliners delivered will they be retired after the summer short haul season?


Reason I ask is we are flying LGW-BGI in Feb 18 and I really would prefer a 787 over 767, more for seating config really as there are 3 of us.


I'm guessing the 767's will be staying a while longer given they have the new TUI livery?

[oldbalboy]

767 will be around for a while but not planned to do any UK Long Haul flying this winter.

[jamjar87]

Thanks for your reply, do you think they will get leased over to another TUI airline for the winter or will be kept as a back up should a Dreamliner go tech?

[McBruce]

They will be kept busy in the Nordics for the foreseeable winters.

[Rob Courtney]

YH has been operating out of Sweeden all summer, the other three seem to spend a lot of time at Manchester.

[oldbalboy]

They planned to operate out of Nordic bases in winter.

[garry8g]

Two B789 due to be delivered next year.

G-TUIL(line number 676) - due to be delivered 12/03/18 and

G-TUIM(line number 703) - due to be delivered 16/05/18.

I assume that there will be another in 2019, followed by the last ordered so far, in 2020.

[garry8g]

Jethro's reporting that B767-38EAR-W transferring from TUI Nordic to the Thomson(TUI UK) fleet on 9th November, to be registered GOYBK.

Also GOBYH due back at end of October.

[oldbalboy]

All scandinavian 767 on UK register by end of summer, they will all be flying out of Scandinavian bases with local based crews for the winter.

Does that include the B767 at TUI Netherlands(PH-OYI) and the B767 at TUI Belgium(OO-JNL) ?

Or is it only the TUI Nordic B767 (SE-RFR) G-OBYK ?
