Sunwing's Europe bases

[lemdkmia]

Hi,

I'm not a pilot so please excuse my lack of knowledge on this - just curious how exactly Sunwing's operations out of Europe work. Does Sunwing operate flights within Europe, and if so where are the bases? Or all flights to Europe still originating in Canada (with maybe a stop along the way). I'm wondering because of the news article today about the 2017 flight between Belfast and Corfu.

Thanks

They wet lease their planes (aircraft, crew, insurance) during the summer months to European carriers (Tui) to utilize their fleet during when people aren't going on vacations to sun destinations from Canada. The European carrier sells the tickets and sunwing operates the flight.
