Every great season begins with a clear purpose, and ours is simple: deliver a quality-focused summer programme that’s safe, seamless, and enjoyable.
FLY4 Airlines is delighted to announce the launch of our summer operations on behalf of TUI from 1 May at Norwich Airport (NWI). This collaboration reflects our unwavering commitment to delivering a quality-focused summer programme that is safe, seamless and enjoyable. Through our uniform focus on quality and our collective expertise across commercial, safety and compliance, crew planning and training, flight operations, engineering and maintenance, and ground operations, we have laid the foundations for a robust season in the skies.
A shared purpose at the heart of summer operations
Every successful venture begins with a clear purpose. For FLY4, that purpose is to offer reliable ACMI capacity solutions to TUI for their summer flying season that exceed customer expectations. From the earliest stages of planning, our teams worked in concert to define objectives, anticipate challenges and establish robust processes. This shared vision has guided every decision, ensuring that our summer programme, that kicked off at Norwich Airport and also includes Birmingham (BHX) and East Midlands (EMA) airports, will run like clockwork, providing guests with the outstanding experience they deserve.
Passion in preparation
Passion drives performance. Over the past months, FLY4 and TUI colleagues have immersed themselves in intensive training and preparation. The commercial teams refined schedules, safety professionals updated risk assessments, and crew planners coordinated rosters and training sessions. Flight operations teams conducted scenario simulations while engineering and maintenance experts completed thorough inspections and readied our Boeing 737-800 fleet. This collective passion has translated into meticulous planning that leaves nothing to chance.
People are at the heart of everything we do
At the core of this partnership are the people whose dedication makes every flight possible. From Norwich Airport’s ground-handling staff to our crews and the entire back-office Team at FLY4, each individual has played an indispensable role. Their willingness to collaborate across functions, share insights and innovate solutions has elevated our performance standards. “Joining forces with TUI allows us to combine strengths and deliver a summer of memorable journeys for our guests,” said Jochen Schnadt, CEO and Accountable Manager at FLY4 Airlines. “I am immensely proud of our teams, whose expertise and commitment ensure safety and reliability on every flight.”
Expanding regional departures
FLY4 will further expand its regional footprint this summer, with flights to and from Norwich complemented by services from Birmingham Airport and East Midlands Airport, both of which FLY4 operated last year. Wherever a FLY4 aircraft appears on the tarmac, passengers can be confident they will experience the same high-quality service and comfort synonymous with a TUI flight. This expansion underscores our ambition to become the go-to ACMI partner.
Looking ahead to a spectacular season
We enter Summer 2025 with the conviction that our purpose-driven approach, unwavering passion, people-centred culture and commitment to top-tier performance will deliver a seamless experience from check-in to touchdown.
To everyone who has contributed to these preparations, thank you for your hard work and dedication. Here’s to a strong start, a successful summer and to the values that guide us every single day: purpose, passion, people and performance. Let’s make this season one to remember.
