Why was it delivered to BRU?

Probably collecting sprouts ready for Christmas. ;-)

Is any expansion planned for BOH in S20? I note that Exeter has already announced a new winter 19/20 route and DSA has announced a new S20 route already but nothing apparently for BOH yet rumour abounds about additional aircraft in S20 including potential long-haul services.

Does anyone know who has picked up FDZA? I searched the thread but didn't see a mention other than it was WFU. I see it went to AUH on 1st Oct has since done a 2hr test flight whilst being there and is now on it's way to SNN.

Same fate for ZJ?

Cheers!

G-BYAW flew to SNN on the 11th November and hasn’t flown since, anyone know why?

Also, does anyone know what happened yesterday with the 757s and TFS flights? Last Tuesday, G-BYAY flew MAN-TFS-GLA and G-OOBN flew GLA-TFS-MAN despite these flights being a few hours apart meaning the inbound TFS-GLA had left before the outbound GLA-TFS even arrived.

Yesterday, G-BYAY flew GLA-ALC-GLA but then didn’t go to TFS as scheduled. G-OOBN flew MAN-TFS-BRS and G-OOBA flew BRS-TFS-GLA-MAN (seems just to be a regular swap since the MAN aircraft seems to return to GLA and vice versa and it must’ve just gone to MAN since BYAY was sitting at GLA anyway). G-OOBF flew BRS-GLA-MAN-TFS-MAN. Presumably this was supposed to be the outbound GLA (albeit significantly late) but seemed to stop at MAN on the way out (crew change maybe?) and then the inbound MAN (again very late).

The only explanation I could think of for last week was that GLA may be closing earlier (or having runway works or something)? But doesn’t explain the apparent disaster that was yesterday. I guess BYAY must’ve gone tech but it’s a very confusing situation nonetheless.

G-BYAY was tech in GLA. G-OOBF was spare in BRS so positioned to GLA to operate theTFS, stopping in MAN for a full crew change on the way.

G-TUMA delivered today, flying BRU-MAN and MAN-MAN earlier.

Does anyone know why G-TUIB and G-TUIC are currently flying to Muscat from BHX and MAN?

The BHX flight was meant to leave at 10:30 but only left twelve hours later at 22:29 unless it was meant to be scheduled for 10:30pm? The MAN flight left pretty much on time at 23:15.

Looks like MCT were also expecting a flight from LGW at a similar time to the BHX but this doesn’t appear to have materialised.

Looks like the cruise flights have caused some issues with those delays, there's a 9L A332 (Jet2 logo'd) operating the Friday BHX-CUN rotation today. Unless this was scheduled for other reasons?

The cruise ship was late, so the flights were delayed to meet it.

I am trying to find short haul flights to book with TUI for S19 to/from Greece, that are operated with 767 and 787 but the problem is that dummy bookings on their site do not give you beforehand info about the a/c operated..(unless it's op by Norwegian which we know is 737). You have to pay first and then on check-in oyou find out..which is weird because when i tried to book it gave me the option to pre-book a seat but seating plan would not open,it just said pre-seating selected..Is there a way to be able to know what a/c will be operated on certain flights? I dont wanna book for a 767 and get a 738..although i wouldn't complain about a 757..Oh and seat-guru says their 757s seat 235 but Tui site says 221..So which is it?

If you look at the flights website any flight by the Dreamliner will be marked as on the Dreamliner.

And no flights out of LGW (where I assume you're looking at, given your mention of Norwegian) will be on the 767

Confirmed that more flights from LBA are to be suspended. Only PMI and CFU remain on top of the cruise flights
Customers offered refunds or transfers to MAN/DSA

Well its a good job LBA have other operators that cover all of the axed TUi routes already. TUi loss is Jet2 and Ryanair gain.

Something is definitely wrong as it has been there for over five hours now.

G-TUMB is due to be delivered next week but again to BRU. Will this be the case for all new aircraft now or is it only for the first few MAXs?

The future G-TAWY has also been sitting at MAN since the 30th November but needs re-painted, will this be happening at MAN? Future G-TAWX (does not need re-painting, only reg etc.) is still operating in Nordics but due later this month. Am I right in my belief that TUIfly Nordic is all but shutting down completely? https://standbynordic.com/tui-abando...arter-flights/
If so, what will happen to their other remaining aircraft (1x738 and 1x7M8)?
