TUI Fly
TUI fly is a collective brand for the leisure airlines owned by the TUI Group, one of the world’s leading tourism companies. As of early 2026, the airline group operates under a “One TUI Airline” strategy, which centralizes management and commercial functions across its five European subsidiaries while maintaining their individual flight certificates.
- Subsidiaries and Brand: The group includes TUI Airways in the UK, TUI fly Germany, TUI fly Belgium, TUI fly Netherlands, and TUI fly Nordic in Sweden. While they share a unified brand identity featuring the signature red smile logo, each unit focuses on its specific home market to provide vacation flights for TUI tour operators.
- Fleet and Operations: The combined group operates nearly 140 aircraft as of January 2026. The fleet is primarily composed of Boeing 737-800 and Boeing 737 MAX 8 jets for short and medium haul routes, alongside Boeing 787 Dreamliners for long haul services. In 2026, the airline is continuing its transition to more fuel-efficient MAX aircraft.
- 2026 Network Changes: For the summer 2026 season, TUI fly Germany plans to offer over 560 weekly flights from major German hubs like Dusseldorf and Frankfurt, with heavy focus on Spain and the Greek islands. In contrast, TUI Ireland is transitioning to a partner-airline model in summer 2026, increasingly utilizing third-party carriers like Ryanair and easyJet to provide greater flexibility for package holidays.
- Service Model: TUI fly operates as a leisure-oriented carrier. On long haul Dreamliner flights, it offers a Premium Club cabin with upgraded seating, multi-course meals, and lounge access. For short haul flights, the service is more budget-focused, though it remains a key component of TUI’s all-inclusive vacation packages.
- Strategic Shifts: As of early 2025, the Belgian division announced it would end its long haul operations from Brussels by the 2025-2026 winter season, consolidating its widebody aircraft within other parts of the TUI Group network.
