TUI UK phases-out last B757s
On 3 October, TUI UK conducted its final B757-flights. The aircraft in question, G-OOBB (32447) and G-OOBP (30394) flew the last flights in service of the charter company from Paphos to Birmingham and from Heraklion to London-Gatwick. On 30 September, G-OOBN (29379) was already retired. All three B757s have been sold by TUI to Blackrock Investment and are set to be converted into freighters.
Over the years, TUI UK has operated twelve B757-200s but if you include Thomson Airways, the predecessor of TUI UK, it operated 31 different B757-200s over the years.
