For S23 it alternates between NCL/GLA. So, one week x3 one week x1. Saturday is weekly, Sunday & Tuesday are fortnightly.

S24 is Saturday & Tuesday weekly.

Cazza is correct. I said 787 PILOTS are only based at LGW/MAN/BHX.
I should know, I am one.
Again. Cazza is correct in that Cabin crew are based everywhere, so when you were talking to the Cabin Crew, that info is correct.

23/24 summer routes been updated
 

If you go back to post 1568, you’ll see that Matt995 has very kindly produced a provisional flying programme for peak-season summer 2024.

G-TAWD 737-800 operating Corfu - Leeds Bradford has skidded off the runway upon landing at LBA ending up in boggy grass on the side of the runway.

aaah remember British Airtours ?!
that runway has always been a bit iffy
‘moved off the runway’ was the corporate term used for PR

G-TUOD
 

Looks like a new Max will be on the way soon planespotters has it as G-TUOD

What a strange registration.

Suppose 3rd letter could have been R.................... :)

Seems like it was due to be delivered to TUIFly as D-AMAG, been at Victorville in US for a few months. First flight was 27th July.

Also Planespotters have G-TAWB due to return to the fleet after being with TUIFly as D-ATYM since January 2023.

Is this the last weekend of 767 operations for the airline, does anybody know the final flight or last day of ops? Thanks

Boa Vista to Manchester showing as a 767 on Monday 30th October looks to be the final flight.

Not seen anything official, although i don't remember TUI doing anything for the final 757 flight either.

Thanks for the info

There may also be some inbound-only flights up to and including Tuesday 31st but I don’t think it’s due to be scheduled on anything from November onwards. Could be wrong though as haven’t seen anything official either.

LBA Diversions
 

I note that for the last two days TUI have diverted to Manchester instead of landing at LBA when all other flights have been landing as normal.
Is this because of the recent excursion off the runway when the runway was wet, as it currently is all the time or could it be weather problems on the M62 causing cancellation of crew transfer from Manchester?

Final 767 flight looks to be TOM2243 due to arrive in MAN from HER at 0010 on 1 November. It's doing a PMI rotation on Tuesday morning (TOM2228F/TOM2229) and then the HER. One aircraft is scheduled to position out to SAW as TOM924P at 1355 on 31Oct and the second is due to position to SAW as TOM974P at 0815 on 01Nov.

767s
 

Looks like TUI may be having some issues with the 767s just as they’re about to be withdrawn.

G-OBYF: Operating today to BVC, just under 2 hours late. Until today, hasn’t operated since Thursday 26th.

G-OBYK: Operated to CFU almost 4 hours late on Friday, then to PMI on Saturday morning and has been stuck there since. It was therefore unable to operate the inbound from PMI nor the ferry flight to KGS, followed by the final inbound from there. FR24 shows it had been due to leave PMI (rescheduled flight) at 10:00 this morning but that hasn’t happened yet.

TUI have had to bring in a Privilege Style 772 (EC-MUA) to operate inbounds from RHO last night (presumably covering for OBYF) and 24-hour late KGS tonight (covering for OBYK).

They have landed at LBA a couple of times since the accident - from PMI and DBV I believe.

I read that an outbound crew had been waiting for the aircraft at LBA (it was on a 5-hour delay at that point) on at least one of the occasions it diverted to MAN so presumably the decision was made in the air. It does appear they are being a bit hesitant in landing at LBA though, especially where most/all other flights are landing safely.

OBYK still stuck in PMI. OBYF is positioning to SAW today.

Any idea what the future is for these 2? I’m assuming freighter conversions but has anyone agreed to take them yet?
