HISTORY ASPECTS: The TUI Boeing 737 MAX 8, registration G-TUMY, is a modern narrow-body aircraft that reflects the airline’s commitment to efficiency and passenger comfort. Delivered in 2019, G-TUMY is part of TUI’s initiative to modernize its fleet with next-generation aircraft that offer reduced fuel consumption and lower environmental impact. With improved aerodynamics, advanced LEAP-1B engines, and extended range, the 737 MAX 8 allows TUI to operate cost-effective flights to a wide range of short- and medium-haul destinations across Europe, North Africa, and the Canary Islands. G-TUMY was briefly grounded alongside all 737 MAX aircraft during the global suspension of the type following safety concerns raised in 2019. After undergoing software updates and intensive testing mandated by aviation authorities, the aircraft reentered service as part of TUI’s gradually reactivated MAX fleet. Since its return, G-TUMY has been seen regularly at airports across the UK and Europe, flying leisure passengers to popular holiday destinations with TUI’s signature turquoise livery and the iconic red smile on the tail. Operating primarily out of major UK hubs such as Manchester and London Gatwick, G-TUMY has become a reliable workhorse in TUI’s post-pandemic recovery strategy. The aircraft delivers improved fuel efficiency of up to 14% compared to previous generation models, helping TUI meet sustainability goals while maintaining affordable fares. Its quieter engines and enhanced cabin experience also ensure a more pleasant journey for travelers, making it a key asset in TUI's fleet. Now you can bring home a perfectly scaled tribute to modern commercial aviation with the 1:400 diecast model of TUI’s 737 MAX 8 G-TUMY. Featuring accurate details, vibrant livery, and realistic landing gear, this collectible is ideal for aviation fans and model enthusiasts alike.
