Summary of TUI from BRS in Summer 2026

I've compared TUI's schedule from BRS during the second week in August 2026 compared to the same week in 2025. Here are the number of departures each week with the changes highlighted.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Number of destinations operating per week:
2025: 29
2026: 27 [-1]
-------------------------------------------------------------
Number of departures per week:
2025: 69
2026: 65 [-4 / -7%]
-------------------------------------------------------------
Number of based aircraft:
2025: 5 (5x B38M)
2026: 5 (5x B38M)
-------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
The 5x based aircraft roughly operate 2x departures each day, however;
- 1x aircraft has an afternoon "off" on a Tuesday and on a Sunday.
- On a Tuesday, 1x aircraft operates the following 'w-pattern': BRS-PMI-MME-PMI-BRS
- On a Thursday, 1x aircraft operates the following 'w-pattern': BRS-PMI-EMA-PMI-BRS
- On a Friday, 1x aircraft operates the following 'w-pattern': BRS-PMI-NWI-PMI-BRS
- On a Saturday, 1x aircraft operates the following 'w-pattern': BRS-PMI-LTN-PMI-BRS
On a Sunday, a LGW based B738 operates LGW-PMI-BRS-PMI-LGW
Oddly, on a Sunday, a BRS based B38M operates BRS-ZTH-EXT-ACE-EXT whilst at the same time an EXT based B738 operates from EXT-ZTH-BRS.
That means a B738 overnights at BRS and a B38M overnights at EXT on a Sunday night.
Then on a Monday, the B38M operates EXT-CFU-BRS whilst the B738 operates BRS-CFU-EMA-ZTH-EMA and an EMA based B738 operates EMA-NAP-EMA-CFU-EXT
