I think you're right. Operating charter flights is different to scheduled so certain countries they can't sell seat only. Within the EU (for now...) they can sell as they wish. However, for example, I doubt (haven't checked) they have the rights to sell LGW-PQC flight only.

If you click on "departure airport" in the flights section, a dropdown will appear with a list of UK airports. At the top of the dropdown you will see two tabs - "UK Airports" and "Overseas Airports". The website automatically opens the "UK Airports" tab, but if you click on the "Overseas Airports" tab then it will bring up all of their non-UK airports.

Flightmapper would suggest its a 767.
When you book online it will tell you if its scheduled to be a 787, even for short haul. For example on a Friday from Manchester, Menorca and Bourgas are due to be operated by the 787.

TUI in the last few years has operated a 1x weekly ski charter between Gatwick and Fagernes in Norway. Based on news reports in Norway, the future of Fagernes airport is somewhat uncertain beyond 01-Jan-2019
Are TUI just sitting on the fence at the moment waiting to see what happens, or have TUI taken a decision not to operate Gatwick-Fagernes for winter 2018/2019 ?

Travelling from Manchester on the 787 in June, how has the building work affected TUI flights? are they using remote stands for early morning departures?
Thanks

Does anyone know why today's BY5730 (LTN-AGP) is being operated from NCL? LTN’s B752 G-CPEU is currently heading to NCL from RHO so this is clearly planned.

The first few weeks of season changes things like this happen due to FR24 picking up on old flight numbers ando codes. You will find that the LTN - AGP has a new flight code for this summer
in a few weeks time all will be back to normal

usually the case but did actually appear on the airports’s Departure board and was scheduled to leave 10 mins before the based TUI 738. Could even more geordies want to go to AGP than normal for the bank holiday?!?!

G-TUIA did MAN-AGP-GLA-AGP-MAN (GLA also had a further flight on an additional non-based 757)
G-TUIC did MAN-AGP-MAN
G-TUIH did LGW-AGP-MAN-AGP-LGW
(LGW and MAN also had several 737 flights to AGP)
G-OBYK was also drafted in from Scandinavia to do a return flight to BHX before flying back to ARN.

perhaps a bit tedious now for most re a 757 flight to AGP but the nightstopping aircraft at NCL has got its picture on the airport’s Facebook page. Fails to mention that there used to be numerous 757’s based at NCL including 2 x BY so could be read as a bit desparate unlike the photo of 2 BA 747’s and a BCal dc10 on the ground at the same time in 1988 that they shared last week!

Does anyone know what's going on with the Cardiff/Pafos situation? G-TAWB was very late (8 hours late) going out to Pafos last night, arriving in the early hours of this morning. G-FDZD positioned ABZ-CWL last night to cover today's flights, but as of yet, G-TAWB still hasn't moved from PFO. That's one hefty delay (I assume there will be passengers since it's the second week of the season now, plus PFO generally runs prior to the summer season starting anyway), and ABZ is now without an aircraft for tomorrow.
EDIT: G-TAWB has finally left PFO for CWL, 21 hours later than scheduled.

Anybody know whats going on with TUI at EMA I thought it was a 737 only base but for the last two days a 757 has been based there and operating some of the flights.
I have not seen any evidence of any of the 737 going sick so may be planned.
