FLY4 Airlines launches expanded summer ACMI programme for TUI from three UK bases

DUBLIN, Ireland – FLY4 Airlines is proud to announce the start of its expanded ACMI summer flying programme for TUI, with operations officially launching from 1 May 2025. Following the success of its first year, FLY4 returns to support TUI with a significantly scaled-up operation across three UK regional bases: Norwich (NWI), Birmingham (BHX) and East Midlands Airport (EMA).
Meticulous preparation for a seamless summer
Building on valuable insights gained during its inaugural season, FLY4 has spent the last six months preparing for the busy summer ahead. The airline has recruited additional pilots and implemented an extensive, operation-specific training programme to ensure its crews are fully ready to deliver an exceptional flying experience.
Close collaboration with TUI has been key to aligning on scheduling and capacity planning, allowing both teams to optimise the summer flying programme for reliability and resilience. In parallel, FLY4 has worked closely with its maintenance partners to ensure its Boeing 737-800 fleet is fully prepared for the demands of peak season flying.
“Going into our second year of operation, we are delighted to be operating for our client TUI again with an even bigger programme this summer from three bases,” commented Jochen Schnadt, CEO and Accountability Manager at FLY4 Airlines. “The FLY4 team has been closely working with our colleagues at TUI over the last few months to be as prepared as we can be to operate a safe, resilient and reliable operation on behalf of TUI, providing our Guests with a safe, pleasant and comfortable flight experience when travelling for their holidays this summer.”
A growing regional presence
FLY4’s 2025 summer programme will see the airline operate more than 2,200 flights from its three UK bases, flying to 25 popular holiday destinations across Europe. This expanded footprint reflects the growing strength of FLY4’s ACMI offering and its ability to deliver quality-focused operations at scale.
The airline’s regional operations demonstrate FLY4’s commitment to providing flexible, dependable capacity solutions that align with the needs of its partners and the expectations of their customers.
A shared commitment to quality and guest experience
At the heart of FLY4’s partnership with TUI is a shared commitment to safety, performance and guest satisfaction. With a modern fleet of Boeing 737-800 aircraft, a passionate team and a values-driven approach centred around purpose, passion, people and performance, FLY4 is well positioned to support another successful summer season.
As operations commence this week, FLY4 looks forward to welcoming TUI Guests onboard and delivering the same high standards of safety, reliability and comfort that have become hallmarks of the FLY4 experience.
