DERTOUR SK to deploy Dreamliner on exotic routes from Bratislava starting winter 2026
The Slovak group DERTOUR SK, together with travel agencies Fischer and KARTAGO tours, will deploy a widebody Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner operated by British airline TUI Airways on long-haul charter routes from Bratislava starting winter season 2026. The aircraft is set to fly non-stop from BTS airport to exotic destinations, something previously not possible from Slovakia.
The Slovak group DERTOUR SK has announced a partnership with British airline TUI Airways, under which it will deploy a widebody Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner on selected long-haul routes from Bratislava starting this winter. The aircraft will operate charter flights from BTS airport for travel agencies Fischer and KARTAGO tours.
The Dreamliner's range is expected to enable direct, non-stop flights from Bratislava to exotic destinations. The source of the report does not specify an exact calendar date for the first flight or its flight number, so this is so far an announcement of a planned partnership rather than a confirmed schedule.

The new connection is meant to expand the current range of long-haul flights from BTS airport, where widebody aircraft have not been common until now. The deployment of the Dreamliner thus opens up exotic destinations for Slovak travelers that previously required a connecting flight.
