I have noticed that britannia sweden has been rebranded Tuifly.com sweden and have painted there 757 aircraft http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=5718181
I know tuifly has been around for a while now as the group for all tui airlines but i wonder if this branding will appear on all of the groups aircraft with just the ”operated by thomsonfly..etc” titles at the front or just operate as tuifly UK for example.
Any one know of any rumours or news about this ?
Thanks.

Interesting that in Germany Hapag Lloyd Express has kept it’s seperate identity from HapagFly, while in the UK ThomsonFly covers both the charter and loco operations.

I think that they could soon just become hapagfly and operate like thomsonfly if they dont all become tuifly so that the hapagfly brand is more used an noticed.

I guess this way that each country can relate to the airline – eg in the UK Thomson is a fairly well known brand. I guess also that they could later bring them all together once the ‘local’ names die out.

Tui Airlines/TUIfly appears to be link brand between all the other Airlines.
Quote from the TUIfly.com website:
TUI Airlines is the Number 1 with more than one hundred aircraft flying in seven airlines – all linked by the common brand TUIfly.com. In 2004 we welcomed 23 million holidaymakers and business passengers on board our aircraft.
I know it’s confusing but i’ll try my best to explain.

Britannia Nordic has basically been named BritanniaFly.
BritanniaFly, with all the others, ArkeFly, CorsairFly, HapagFly, JetairFly and Thomsonfly all appear to be branches of tuifly.
I hope that helps.
