Ryanair Summer 2024
Schedules are beginning to be loaded into the system but strangely most don’t start till June which is bound to change at some point ( looks to be the same at most other UK airports )
At the moment 2 based aircraft are operating the schedules again with only GRO , DUB & FAO
left to be loaded
Malta goes to 3 x week
Lanzarote continues into the summer x1
Obviously it’s early days and would expect to see more routes and an increase in schedules launched later on this year
Hays travel have sold out there Barbados fly cruises for Winter 24 & 25 already and P@O launch the first of their BGI charters this month with 7 TUI charters operating this winter
Hays could sell a lot more fly cruises from BOH but have trouble sourcing TUI aircraft as a shortage of B787 and no other suitable UK carrier anymore

Looks like TUI have withdrawn from sale it’s new destination Tunisia for next summer before it’s even had a chance of sales
Nothing in its place yet on a Friday morning

Im presuming you mean Ryanair? If so, they've done this previously and across their operation also. Most likely so they dont miss out on the early bookers in the peak summer, but still finalising the shoulder months of the season so its less likely they have to chop and change as much.

Sane for all routes from BHX so I'm assuming all UK served FR airports for the reasons given by the previous poster. FR have a habit every year of loading a partially completed summer schedule ...

August 2023
A bumper month for the airport: over 124,000 passengers passed through the doors.
Bournemouth was the fastest growing ‘big’ regional airport in the U.K. in August.
TUI are advertising for more Bournemouth based cabin and flight crew aggressively on social media for summer next year.
Ryanair are rumoured to be increasing frequency from 2 to 3 weekly on several routes next summer including Krakow, Malta & Tenerife.

Impressive August figures for Bournemouth definitely
A look at some lesser destinations saw
Bergerac , Zadar , Venice and Carcassone average loads of 90 % - 95 %
Pretty much the whole of the Spanish routes were full as expected while Krakow and Wrocław averaged about 98 % loads
Malta has already been increased to 3 x week for next summer and Lanzarote now continues into the summer season with Ryanair
Flights are still being loaded so it’s to early to say if a 3rd aircraft is joining the base

TUI have replaced the Enfidha service on a Friday morning with another Palma flight taking the operator to 5 flights a week
With Ryanair operating 9 services a week , Palma will now be 14 flights a week for S24 the highest ever i believe

It's a shame that they couldn't have been a little more imaginative in choosing an alternative destination. Let's hope the demand is there .....

TUI are incredibly safe in their destinations and they have an incredible profile over the years of what the customers like and where they travel to in order to get to that destination
I agree the market is there for FNC , DBV , NAP etc but could it sustain a full summer season ?
Only TUI no that , they see a huge demand from BOH to the usual suspect destinations and by basing a 2nd aircraft next year gives people a huge opportunity to extend their holidays a bit longer
Palmair operated a 148 seater B735 compared to TUI 189 seater a big difference !!
If only there were more smaller airlines , aircraft and niche tour operators left to do this again

Just a gentle correction - the 732 and 735 ops were 124Y which actually just accentuates the point you're making. TUI is, right now best off serving the 'milk run' routes it knows best and where it dominates in terms of beds/ground handling and widening up the duration options seems a well thought out strategy.
"If only there were more smaller airlines , aircraft and niche tour operators left to do this again"
there were but they all went bust - the survivors are all significantly bigger and a lot more data driven
