At the moment don’t know however I have it on good authority TUI UK was offered for sale and the purchase declined. I think there may a radical base review together with a restructure of hotel offerings and cruise ships. For the record the four remaining ships are all in Europe for S22 two in Palma, one adults only in Dubrovnik with the remaining one in Corfu. So no Melbourne next year. Simply not required.

Reads to me as Tui pulling flights to red listed countries. Same as everyone else. I imagine it affects other airports but painted as a Glasgow issue by the comedy news website Glasgow Live.

TUI have barely flown from GLA at all this summer. There’s been a 738 based full time but it has hardly moved. I think at the peak it was something like 2xPMI, 1xIBZ, 1xZTH per week and has been nothing at all for a couple of weeks now. Surely if they can’t even operate during the summer holidays there’s little chance of much else operating this year? With EDI and ABZ completely pulled it’s been an extremely poor show from TUI in Scotland this year.

Excuse my ignorance (I’ve had no real reason to keep up as I’ve had no overseas travel plans), but are the rules really that different between England and Scotland? TUI have managed to operate many more flights from the likes of NCL/DSA/EMA/STN/BRS than GLA.
