Sunwing Airlines B738 @ Norwich for 2017.

Post by keithnewsome »

In the past few years we have had Germania B737's flying most of the TUI Airlines UK holiday flights from Norwich .... But for this season we are blessed with a Sunwing Airlines B738 ....

We flew Birmingham to Fuerteventura last year with Sunwing-nice newish aircraft and smooth flight.Apparently Sunwing's pilots bring the aircraft over together with their families during our busy Summer season and stay nearby to which ever airport they are based from.Vice versa for Thomsonfly pilots for the Canadian busier season.

Many thanks for that 'TYPHOON3' ... I wasn't there for the arrival, but was told by others, that there was a very large crew with it ?? Your post may explain this ??

No problem Keith.I was told this info by one of the Thomsonfly stewards on the outbound flight so yes the large crew would most likely explain what I said.The steward did say that they usually come over from May to September/October.

Yes Robert it seems a seasonal swap jobby ! It has happened in the past, even seem to remember suitable paint jobs just for the season ?? This year there seems to be a Sunwing 738 operating for TUI airlines UK from Belfast, Leeds, Liverpool and Norwich ......
