Hi Darren & co.,
Three questions please?
1. What aircraft will be based at Bournemouth this summer? Is it just the one bird? We are on TOM598 03.05.12 to Antalya.
I'm assuming a 738 - would love to try the new interiors!
2. Any ideas what will be doing TOM4342 LGW<>Kos on 30.05.12 please? Depending on config can anyone confirm what the rules are regarding allocations of infants e.g. 1 per row etc? There are 2 infants in our party of 12 (10 adults/kids), had issues previously when got moved during taxi to seats with enough emergency oxygen masks!!
3. Am I right in saying that TOM have now dropped IFE on short haul?
Thank you in advance!

MAN-CUN-MAN (TOM196/7) are operated by ex-FCA Boeing 767-300/ER. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft Guide (link below). The current IFE listing is for January / February is linked their. March / April won't be released until the beginning of March. I'll update the link as soon as I get it.

BOH is one Boeing 737-800 for Summer 2012. LGW-KGS-LGW (TOM4342/3) are operated by Boeing 737-800 (winglets). There's 1 infant per row as far as I know. There's no IFE on short haul now. Further information is on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

jojocircus,

Click on the link in my signature and scroll down to the Thomson Airways section. Aircraft photos are linked from the first paragraph and seating plans in the third. The IFE list is at the end of the third paragraph along with screenshots. Depending on your browser, links are in blue.

Hello Darren and Co.

Can't believe there are so many queries about flights to Cancun recently.

Well, here's one more! Can you tell me what plane will be used for TOM48 (LGW-CUN) 18 April?

Thanks

Darren,

Regarding my enquiry about TOM48 (LGW-CUN) on 18 April, is it too early to know the route that plane will operate immediately before my flight.

LGW-CUN-LGW (TOM048/9) are operated by ex-FCA Boeing 767-300/ER. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft Guide (link below). The aircraft operates LGW-Montego Bay-LGW(TOM030/1) beforehand.

For our annual chill-out we are booked to fly MAN>CUN on TOM144 on 30th Jun and back on TOM145 on 14th July.
If you could answer a few questions it would be great:

Presumably it is a 767, but is it too early to know if it will be ex TOM or ex FCA?
Likewise, is it possible to see which flight the plane will be operating beforehand?
Have any 767s been taken out of (or added to) the fleet since last summer? I seem to recall talk of Boeing substituting some newer planes as compensation for the 787 delays when there were a few reliability issues last year.

Thanks for all your assistance.

paulbos,

Refer to my post to victhel above. I won't know the inbound aircraft until May. It's the same 6 airframes.

If you book BA they tell you which aircraft it will use.
Why can't Thomson tell us the same info?

I like this site, but I'm getting fed up with "which plane from Rochdale/Halifax airport to Benidorm International" type of questions.
Sorry to sound grumpy!

I'm flying to Cagliari in June on Easyjet. Will the plane be a Airbus? Oh no, now I'm at it!!!!

Given this topic is concerned with Thomson Airways and flying on their aircraft, it shouldn't be of any surprise really to have such questions. It's what the topic is here for. Maybe you can start a topic of conversation other than what aircraft operates on which flight?
