TUI Airline in 2024

From what I've been told by a maintenance worker at TUI: An oil leak from engine #2's rear bearing.

An oil leak that requires removing an engine is a symptom of a far worse problem.

Speculation on my part: may be related to an FAA AD over inspecting certain compressor parts in PW1900G engines and accelerated replacement schedule for others. That would definitely require the engine coming off the aircraft.

AD was published March 27, and operators knew it was coming since January. Enough time to plan/perform the work before the Summer season.

any info on why E295 OO-ETC is 'grounded' for over 2 weeks? AOG presumably?

Engine issues, presumably. I saw it in the vicinity of Hangar 40 a few days ago with the #2 engine missing and the nacelle etc. taped up.
Though I don’t know anything about the exact nature of the issue(-s).

This might take a while from the looks of it... https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/11308386

New inflight safety video since May 1st for all airlines within the TUI Group:

TUI have landed a new take on the classic in-flight safety film, Safety: A Global Film. The work celebrates TUI destinations, offering a highly-engaging safety briefing by reimagining it through the lens of world cinema.

Safety: A Global Film journeys with the viewer through multiple scenes, each taking inspiration from a different genre popular in, or, made famous by, a country that TUI operates to. From ancient Egyptian tombs à la Indiana Jones to Kill Bill-esque Chinese temples, the film is a bright, vivid, and colourful extravaganza of sights and sounds from around the globe. source: TUI
