Exciting news from Flythomascook headquarters this week – we have some new aircraft taking to the air plus we are launching some new routes! 

Next month will see the second of our new Airbus A321-211 to enter the UK fleet but it will be the first of the Thomas Cook Group Airlines aircraft to be delivered in the new ‘Sunny Heart’ livery.   Six aircraft will be deployed in the UK and will be in operation by the summer season of 2014.  

Christoph Debus, CEO of Thomas Cook Airlines UK said, “This marks the beginning of an exciting phase for our UK airline as we look ahead to our first new aircraft this December. It’s very symbolic that we will see the first of our new Airbus A321 aircraft in the UK take on our new livery, an icon for the new Thomas Cook.

“The aircraft is now in the final assembly stage and we plan to take delivery in early December – with the first commercial flights taking place before Christmas.  

"Our new ’Sunny Heart’ livery expresses the philosophy of our airline; our team putting their heart into every flight and making sure our customers’ holiday starts as soon as they board their flight to their holiday destination. The Sunny Heart is the perfect symbol for our passion to create memorable holidays for our guests." 

Plus, we have some exciting new route news for next year!
