Flight to Corfu on A321 Airbus


Airbus A321

Our return flight to Kerkyra in Corfu was something of a mystery until a couple of weeks ago!

Our TUI documentation said that we are travelling on an Airbus A321, yet there are no 321 Airbuses shown in the TUI Fly Aircraft Fleet.

TUI's aircraft fleet webpage shows only Boeing Dreamliners and 737 Max airliners although there is one aging Boeing 757 and one even older Boeing 767 still in operation.

TUI's fleet is predominantly Boeing and not Airbus Industries, so it is unlikely that the A321 noted in our documentation belongs to TUI.

We now know is  that we are flying in an Airbus A320 (shorter than an A321) and the picture above shows a Titan A320 and
G-POWM is a 16 year old aircraft

TUI sub-contract it's summer holiday flights to other airlines as there are not enough TUI aircraft in its fleet.

TItan Airways is just one of the asubcontracted airlines, others TUI use are are
SmartLynx, Avion Express, Sunwing,  AirExplore
and sometimes even Easyjet.
