Lost 3 as well

I assume Cape Verde would be a 787 as it must be on the limits for a 73m

I think the Max 8 has a range of 3,500 miles and Cape Verde is approx 3,000 miles.

Well inside Max capability at 420 miles shorter than Toronto, so probably able to be done with 1 crew.

I have added this one to my bucket list. I have just started flying again since the Covid outbreak.
Now I am retired I plan to do more trips, this is differently a good one for the winter months.

Thank you Viscount. Your post proves what I’ve always said - the lifeblood of charter flying is new destinations. Here’s hoping this one lasts as the 757 was quite simply too big to fill on this previous route to Boa Vista.

It also reduces the impact on TUI from intense competition in the Canary Islands.
