Bristol: TUI Airways Route News & Base Updates

[Marko1]

there is no gap so what will it replace?

 

[Marko1]

Winter 20/21 and summer 2021 have been released this morning. Not sure how but frequencies appear to be at the launch stage this time last year with no obvious changes - ie not taking account of recent increases or the collapse of Thomas cook. Also Sharm returns In summer 2020 every weds pm ( not sure what it has replaced yet). However it is not available to book for winter 20/21 . Finally cancun and Orlando change days in summer 2021 however they revert to a break for the Scottish holidays - something I would have thought they would have stopped by now

Did both Cancun weekly flights and the Sanford all operate through the Scottish holidays this summer (2019)? I had a feeling that only one of the Cancun days did but I can't remember about Sanford.

 

[Marko1]

They did but they are not next year. The winter offering for winter 20/21 is quite disappointing to be honest

I also see TUI have launched flights to Dubai Al Makhtoum from a number of UK airports inc Newcastle and BHX but disappointingly have chosen not to launch a BRS route.

Are they cruise flights? A very limited season at some UK airports?

Strange when this is taken into account.

They are for cruises. Cardiff has 1 departure.

One weds dalaman flight already dropped for summer 2020 to make way for Sharm.

Is that the one on the Dreamliner? Or is it just a 737/757?

 

[Marko1]

No they were 737/757 based.
Some really weird scheduling for summer 2021 at the moment - requires 2 Dreamliner on mon and sat at the moment .

Looks like a lot of work in progress then.

If it did indeed pick up pax that is a lot of capacity on MAN-CUN from TUI today. MAN already had two of its own flights, a 788 and a 789. So in total, three Dreamliners inbound to CUN from MAN.

 

[Red Flyer]

You can expect more exciting news with TUI from BRS for W20/21 tomorrow

Only fuel was picked up in MAN

Just Bristol? Or will other airports get announcements as well?

 

[Marko1]

Sharm now On sale twice weekly winter 20/21

 

[BRSregular]

Sharm being announced from lots of UK airports this morning.

 

[TheLocalYokel]

Sharm was already down to operate once weekly next summer from May so it's a case of doubling the weekly frequency next winter.

 

[ROC10]

Yes, it now looks to be on sale from all TUI bases for W20/21 with larger bases like BRS seeing frequency increases.
