Shakeyvara,
Departing from which UK airport? Thomas Cook and Monarch both fly direct from select airports (Manchester and Gatwick). Otherwise it's scheduled carriers that normally need a connection to Goa. Their respective websites are worth checking as well as some of the price comparisson sites. The best thing to do it keep checking and once you see prices and the flights that suite, book them. The trick is not to look again afterwards!

Hi
Does anyone know which plane the LGW to cancun on 24/7/2013 is? Flight no TCX 412. We've booked seats on row 34 outbound and 31 inbound, 3 together right side. Will these rows have a window? Is there seat back IFE or over aisle? Are loos downstairs on this plane?
Sorry, so many questions! All info appreciated.

lilac labrador,
LGW-CUN-LGW (TCX412/3) are operated by Airbus A330-200. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our what Aircraft? guide (link below). The rows you mention have a window and the aircraft has seat back IFE throughout (current listing linked from our What Aircraft? guide). The only A332's in the TCX fleet have the downstairs toilet area. There's also one on the main deck at the front and rear.

Wow thanks Darren, that was super quick! Good news about the IFE. I'm still a bit confused about the loos - do you mean our plane will have downstairs loos? Sorry to be a bit thick!
Also, was thinking about premium seats but can't find an option on Thomas cook book your seat page. I know premium is returning, but maybe not yet?

lilac labrador,
Yes, it will have downstairs toilets. All the details are on our What Aircraft? guide where I've also provided photos. There's also a toilet at the front and rear for those that may not be able to use the stairs. Premium isn't currently available, you'll have to wait on that one.
I take it you're looking at both Mexico and Cape Verde at the moment with both your flight questions? I would consider the destination before the flights. The bit between the flights is more important than how you get there!

Hi Darren
Yes we're going to both - cape verde for a quiet week with friends and Mexico with family. I'm an avid researcher so am confident with my destination choices. It's just the bits I can't control I need info on!!!!
Thanks again for your help.

I believe its a 767 with 2-4-2 config. seat pitch 29", IFE is via over isle screens? Am I correct with this? Just want to manage my kid's (and wife's) expectations as they have had seat back IFE and a bit more seat pitch more recently as a result of travelling transatlantic.
Also at what point are you able to advise what flight the allocated aircraft is on beforehand its a 15:55 departure from MAN so presumably is airborne before this on the same day. Its useful to know so you can check arrivals before departing for the airport. Again its about managing expectations. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks to Sunaddict for the prompt reply to my post some time ago (page 135). I haven't been on for a while! With regards to the second point re knowing where the aircraft is coming from before the TCX2896 flight to Bodrum can anyone give any info. Ta in anticipation.
tfzleeds,
As we're currently in the winter schedule, I won't know until we transit in to the summer schedule if you want to remind me in May. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Hi Dazbo
Bit of a strange one.
I'm booked to fly Manchester to Cancun, TCX 324 on the 25th Jan 14.
I've been on the select your seat site and i'm confused by the seatmap. It doesn't match anything i've seen before? It's the same for our return journey on the TCX 325 8th Feb?
Any insight? It says it's an A332 but it looks different to the seatmaps we've previously seen?
It looks like the normal seatplan but is 3-3-3 in the front section instead of 2-3-2
Thanks
Anthony

Imbrugliasboy,
When was it you last flew with TCX? They now only have the the ex My Travel aircraft in their fleet with the downstairs toilets. Having said that, by the time you fly, they'll have one of the former Bmi A332's in their fleet that has main deck toilets so they'll be back to having two slightly different configurations. That's probably why you don't recognise the seat plan and it's in all economy.

Hi Dazbo
I flew the same route on the 26th Jan this year. I've edited my original post.
To me it looks like the normal plan but with economy throughout and no premium seating?
Anthony
Imbrugliasboy,
More than likely, yes as there is no premium economy seating at the moment, only extra legoom. TCX couldn't change the confoguration on the ex-MYT aircraft as the floor in the forward section couldn't take the extra weight or more seats. It's diffrent on the ex-Bmi aircraft as that's where the huge business class seating was so can take an all economy configuration.

Hi Dazbo
Yep definitely no premium as i've been able to select seats 2a and 2b as standard seats. I hope it's still 33" seat pitch and seatback IFE?
Thanks Anthony

How very disapointing.
They really should let people know this before they book. The brochures say 33" and IFE throughout.
Oh well, at least we get 2 weeks in the sun to get over it!

Did you book via travel agent or online? The only reason I ask is that the travel agent should have told you because its on the important information and like wise on the website it is in the important information section of the booking page.
"Flight: In flight entertainment will be on overhead screens, there are no seat back TVs on this aircraft. Premium cabin is not available on this flight."
It's not 30" by the way its 31-33" a typo on my behalf.

Travel agent. Just checked the small print of our confirmation and it states no seatback IFE haha!
I'm not overly fussed about the seatback IFE as we travel with tablets but i'm happy the seat pitch will be more or less as expected.
Thanks for the info.
Anthony
No that is why they are making sure people know
That's a shame was looking at booking on one of there long hauls next year but I won't be now.
