Flight Review! | TUI 737-8K5 (G-TAWG) | Cardiff to Larnaca | Is it Worth Flying With TUI in 2024? |

In July I flew onboard one of TUIs 737 aircraft down to Larnaca in Cyprus. The TUI Aircraft I flew is a bit different from the rest as it features a white nose cone. The flight itself was fantastic with good service and seats were comfy. The food was a bit overpriced and wasn't anything to write home about. Overall the flight was a great one and I'd definitely recommend you to try TUI atleast once.

Great vid, I regularly fly with TUI and they are (most of the time) faultless. It’s also nice that some 737s have slightly different liveries (such as G-TAWG and G-TUKF which I’ve flown on twice!)

[@CallansAviation25]

Thanks I fly with TUI nearly every year and its always nice to fly on one with a slight difference

I've not flown from CWL since 2000. It's gone downhill so much.

[@geoffevans7555]

Such a shame that Cardiff Airport has become a complete joke. An airport that once had more flights per day than Bristol Airport (not that long ago) has descended into a barely used departure point. I checked on a Bank Holiday recently and Bristol had 8 times as many actual flights as Cardiff. Besides being an embarrassment to Wales it means that far greater pollution is being caused by all the car journeys to BRS or BHX or MAN, for flights that could have originated in Cardiff. Well done our totally incompetent Welsh Government.

TUI crap airline no legroom and arrogant cabin crew

[@WalkerBYT]

I disagree, their aircraft have some of the best legroom currently in the skies, especially their Boeing 787 Dreamliners. Their Boeing 737-8 MAX's have more legroom than the aging Boeing 737-800 fleet. Furthermore, I've never had an issue with TUI Cabin Crew and find them very nice, after all, they're there primarily for safety and security, not service.
