There is a requirement on Canadian registered aircraft for the crew to be fluent in French and all announcements (even between UK and the Med) to be in both English and French. It is likely therefore the easiest way for that to be proven as complied with, is to put a SWG crew member on board.
Some of the aircraft going to Canada sometimes remain on the UK register, some are re-registered onto the C register. The SWG crew can therefore comply with any CAA rules since they all speak English. |
I always wonder why SWG always change some of the TOM aircraft to C-ref but TOM never change any of the SWG aircraft to G-reg. I believe other European TUI airlines do change some of their SWG aircraft over to their own respective reg. |

Both the EDI routes have been operated in W18/S19 using chartered BACF a/c.
|
The dates for Bristol-Reykjavik (Keflavik) are confusing. Have they been transposed? TUI is already down to operate the route at 2 x weekly in January and February 2020 with the last flights on 1 March. A transposition of dates would simply mean the route's season is extended by three weeks.
easyJet already operates through the winter at up to 3 x weekly on BRS-KEF. Addendum I note the dates have now been amended in the original post. These dates have been in the TUI booking timetable and on sale for a long time. |
add Newcastle - Agadir to that S20 list

G-TAWW (their youngest 738) has been playing up a fair bit recently. It had to be covered at least twice whilst it was based in BOH recently IIRC and has been stuck in NBE for 11 hours today. |

Yep indeed when it goes Pete Tong it really does in high season - not something you want when you already have about a dozen ACMI airlines on your books to cover the 9 MAX's From AVHerald Incident: Titan A320 operating for TUI flight BY517 RAK-LGW Mayday near Bordeaux on Jul 5th 2019, engine stall A Titan Airways Airbus A320 on behalf of TUI Airways, registration G-POWM was enroute from Marrakesh at FL360 over the Bay of Biscay about 100nm northwest of Bordeaux when the crew declared a Mayday reporting they were descending due to an engine (IAE V2527) stall. The aircraft diverted to Bordeaux for a safe landing on runway 23 about 35 minutes later. A listener on frequency reported the crew called Mayday due to an engine stall and reported they were descending. After working the checklists they requested to divert to Bordeaux. The occurrence aircraft is still on the ground in Bordeaux about 31 hours after landing. So Titan then have now try to cover the AOG of this one for the TUI contracts.... |
Anyone know why today’s MAN-IBZ is type changed to a 789? Not complaining as I’m on the return leg but just curious. There’s a hefty delay so I’m assuming the 767’s are problematic (which they seem to have been running behind schedule most of the summer so far) |

G-OOBA operating GLA-ZTH 24 hours late today. G-TUIL has been ferried up to operate today’s GLA-DLM. A lucky upgrade for the DLM pax but horrible delay for the ZTH and they’re still on the 757. |

I don’t think anyone out there is having what could be called a good summer. Operationally and commercially, it looks as though 2019 is shaping up as a year that the whole industry will prefer to forget. |
