Hi,
Can we trust this scheduled fly (TB6051) from BRU to BVC and then SID, for april the 28th ? I go on holiday with this fly so it will be nice to have one of the 4 - 737MAX8 (OO-MAX, OO-TMA, OO-TMB, OO-TMY) :D

I think you might indeed fly a MAX 8.

Class F Economy ? I thought F is for First!

I think the chances are rather high that they will start using the MAX as soon as possible on BVC-SID, since those routes are pretty much always load restricted.

Good question, on the last list it still says "pre-flight prep" Renton, flightline.

A picture of a week ago shows that it still needed paint:

Hello everyone.
Air Info/L'Aérien says in an article about JAF, the 2nd 787 will arrive but they will let OO-JNL in Belgium, and won't move. Strange !

Question, when does will arrive the OO-MAX ?

I guess that destinations like Heraklion and Tenerife need a wide-body during the summer holidays. Here some more information about the fleet expansion of TUI in 2018: +4 737-MAX8 and + 1 787-8

No need for an article. TUI fly has confirmed in a press release that they will fly 2 B787s and 1 B767 in 2018. Thus an increase of one wised-body.

Ok, thanks guys!
Was just wondering because according to the article on Wikipedia (Dutch) a B767 would leave the fleet in 2018 but one can find no info or article with a mentioning of a B767 staying (nor leaving) their fleet.

But even then it is still confusing to me and the numbers don’t seem to add up :?

In an article on the TUI press website (and on luchtvaartnieuws.nl, Nieuwsblad,…) TUI fly declares that they will have 33 own aircraft after adding 5 factory new Boeing. In an article on this forum, amongst others, 32 own aircraft are stated…
5 new = 4 737MAX + 1 B787 :?: As someone on this forum mentioned the B787 would be rather young, but not factory new.

According to TUI fly 's website they currently have a fleet of 27 aircraft + 5 = 32…or is another ‘surprise’ still coming?
So this summer they will have a fleet of 33+3 leased from Smartlynx = 36or 35

Can anyone shed some light? How many aircraft? factory new or not? B737MAX and B787 and...or...? THanks a lot ;)
