TUI Airways

Good to see. Never heard of Otopoa before. Not far from Bangkok. Maybr cheaper fees.

 

[Ray Finkle]

Both are nice destinations to see but they're just cruise charters.

It seems that the Thailand cruises will arrive and depart from Laem Chabang, so U-tapao may well have been much easier to get into than Suvarnabhumi.

I had a feeling they were cruise flights,
Yet that's two new destinations going on the departure board's in the winter,

Also good to know BHX are in their long haul plans

Its about time TUI gave us some proper growth (Long haul) and based the 2nd 787 at BHX on a perm basis. Or am i just in cloud cuckoo land ?

 

[mullion]

B787 deliveries are 1 a year for next two years and both are B789 so not a lot of wriggle room

I also believe some 787 8s are going to Belgium as well?

Last time I checked the fleet listings only one 788 was due to go.

I think the only possibility of us seeing a second long haul aircraft is if there are any 788s left at LGW and they get replaced by the 789s coming in.

 

[mullion]

At the moment the B789 are split equally between LGW and MAN so it could be either

 

[mullion]

Forgot to add that B763 are due to go soon and have got to be replaced of which 2 are at MAN also

 

[GliderPilot]

Hate to be the one that says it but you really do like raining on any BHX parade don’t you mullion

I believe they are staying until 2021.

 

[Ianbutty]

I believe they are staying until 2021.

Maybe the 787s will come to BHX then. . Maybe

I think this is new but maybe wrong, perhaps old news?

It became bookable in April through Crystal Ski ( I think I remember posting it on here when I was in Cornwall at Easter), it's not bookable as flight only though so easy to miss.

 

[Ray Finkle]

If anyone is interested Langkawi and U-tapao are now bookable as flight only.

 

[Ray Finkle]
