No I think you are right! sunday agp w pattern during summer 2019. on some thread there is a link to routes online which shows all the max routes this summer. Are the max bases spreading from north to south so could ncl be next - obviously a very simplistic way of looking at it! |
NCL MAX Flights
NCL-ALC will run on a MAX during the month of April (presumably on a MAN-based aircraft, either via w-patterns or positioning flights). NCL-AGP will run on a MAX for the summer starting from the beginning of May (I believe on a GLA-based aircraft). It would certainly make sense that NCL and perhaps ABZ will be next to see a based MAX. |
I was wondering if BRS might have a MAX this summer? I’m booked on a flight that in the last few years has been a 757. The seat map shows extra leg room seats in rows 17 & 18, which I don’t think are on the 738. |

No, the MAX 8 has the same rows of extra legroom as the original 737-800 |
Anyone know why G-TUMA was diverted to CHQ whilst performing HRG-MAN last night? G-FDZR is currently doing LGW-CHQ, presumably to rescue passengers. Guessing it’s a tech fault with the MAX? Wouldn’t be due to MAN closures as it was due in last night before closures, plus I’m sure it would’ve just diverted elsewhere in the UK and could’ve operated back today if necessary. |

Here's your answer... Incident: TUI B38M near Chania on Jan 29th 2019, engine problem |
And it seems as though there was a very similar event on an Aerolineas Argentina MAX back in December...

yes, after an engine problem while flying to Manchester. Still awaiting its new engine before it will be able to take to the skies again. Stuart |

MAX Registrations
It appears there will be no G-TUME or G-TUMI. Anyone know why? |

This will depend. They might not like the sound of G-TUME, or G-TUMI. Airlines don’t use every letter for aircraft registration, mainly the letter Q, TUI haven’t used G-FDZI either and Other airlines are the same. It depends what they like or want. I know that G-TAWE wasn’t used as it was the registration of a former, I believe destroyed, aircraft. G-FDZI (along with others in the FDZ series) were not used due to conflict with the old CDZ series. There was a G-CDZI so FDZI wasn’t used as the last three letters would be the same. There has also been a G-TAWI and G-TUII as well as G-FDZE/G-OOBE/G-TUIE so nothing to do with these letters specifically. i can’t see any obvious reason why G-TUME or G-TUMI would be inappropriate compared to the obvious G-TAWT which was never used. It seems silly not to use all possible registrations as they will sooner need a new prefix other than TUM- but I guess they must have their reasons... |
The LBA for example allow Q however UK CAA do not. They also charge you extra for going out of sequence despite the fact it’s not possible to go from P to Q. |
They may not have used G- FDZI because they sent the bird in question to Britannia Nordic as SE-DZI and when it returned to UK became G-CDZI. |
Maybe Tumi the luggage company has it registered already ? Not sure on TUME. |
MAN-RHO S19
Looking for type info for:
TOM2658 day 6 MAN-RHO 22Jun19.. Last year it was operated as B767/757 so what about this year? Matjr79 |

I surely can’t be the only one who finds this odd... G-FDZR doing LGW-TFS-BOH today whilst G-TAWW doing BOH-TFS-LGW. Seems like a regular down-route swap, however it seems silly since the BOH aircraft is shcheduled to position to LGW tonight at 20:00 as it does every Friday. Surely this swap could’ve just been done by G-TAWW flying BOH-LGW tonight and then G-FDZR flying LGW-BOH tomorrow night, or am I missing something? What’s more, the swapping seems to have further delayed what were already slightly delayed flights. |
Perhaps it has actually been done to avoid the empty positioning sector later this evening? Makes more more sense and happens regularly with all airlines at out-stations as i'm sure you're already aware.

It won’t avoid it though. My point was that FDZR will arrive back to BOH only for it to position to LGW for Saturday ski flights as it is scheduled to do. That’s why I can’t see the logic. |

Ah i see, apologies. Well that does indeed seem a little pointless. The TUI planning department must however see otherwise. I'm more surprised that TUI need to be positioning an empty 737 across from BOH to LGW during the winter.

I was thinking the same the Gatwick crew dont swap aircraft they simply fly to BOH then ferry to LGW later.

If FR24 is to be believed there's currently a 757 (G-OOBC) routing SFB-BHX as TOM935.
FR24's flight history suggests that yesterday it routed RAK-TER-SFB. Interested to learn what's behind that unusual routing? |
One of the TCS World Travel luxury around-the-world trips, for which TUI provide a kitted out 80 seater 757 for.
