This shows what happens if you misbehave on a long haul flight that flies over the USA....

Would this have anything to do with the current raising of capital ? Existing shareholders lose out, but the debt to the German Govt is paid off, corporate debt is reduced, balance sheet will be more robust and the company as a whole should be in a better place

Looks like similar to last summer at least 2 aircraft will be operating Gatwick flights on behalf of TUI from South Terminal. Seat maps show A320, is this likely to be Avion or Titan again?

I am currently looking into the different airlines for trying to get aboard- obviously aware of the MPL assessment underway for TUI and that this may well be their in route from now on but worth doing the research anyway- I am based in Northern Ireland and although by no means fixed to this location, I was wondering if anyone working for TUI could let me know is there a base in Belfast? From the research I have done online sometimes this says that it is seasonal- what does that mean? Are there pilots based there during this time and then based elsewhere the rest of the year? Or is the Belfast base just covered on a roster from other bases?
I have also read in a number of different places that pilots are required to live 60 minutes away from their base? Can anyone confirm if this is the case also?

TUI website/app badly needs attention and updating. I booked seats and special meal in premium only to find the next time I checked they had disappeared and booked by someone else.
Then booking to Madeira no indication flight was EZY until after payment made. Customer services refused to believe me even when I had screenshots of booking screen.
Not sure they will do anything until they get some decent competition on Gatwick holidays.

BFS is Sunwing aircraft and pilots crewed seasonally by TUI crew for about 12 weeks. It's difficult to get to work in I understand. Emerald, easyJet and Ryanair have all been recruiting locally to my knowledge for crew and I'm sure Jet2 will soon enough if not already.
