Wayneo,
IFE is covered on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). It's not really goverened by length of flight, but by aircraft type.
Darren
can someone explain to me what a belly camera is and how you see it? If it is what I think it is, then I do not want to see it while taking off, the window is enough for me 
greenshoes,
Some aircraft are fitted with cameras on the under the nose, under the belly and tail of the aircraft. These are used by crew on the ground, but are also viewable in the cabin on the IFE screens. They are normally only fitted to wide bodied aircraft as an option on the likes of the Boeing 767 and larger Airbus family. For those that don't have a view out of the window, for example those sat in the centre of the aircraft, it gives a visual reference of what's going on outside and they make for spectacular viewing, especially as you take off and come in to land.

Hello (new poster but been reading this forum for ages now)
I'm flying on the TCX759K/L flight from Manchester to Bodrum this Friday but having looked around on the net it's been flying as G-TCCA (B763) the past few weeks. It is usually booked to arrive from Hurghada around 2240 but this is 20 minutes after the confirmed flight departure time to BJV...is this right?

we booked our flights through thomas cook online from glasgow to cancun on 20th september, when searching for the same flights now nothing shows up does this mean the flight is now fully booked??

The flight to bodrum had been running at different times throughout the season and there are also discrpensies when looking on the net as sometimes the flight could come up as g-TCAA but actually be one of the others don't worry though there will be a B767 their for you
Tweetie - we were on an A320 both ways.
Northern Rose - we usually find the inflight meals alright, the ones offered to us as an alternative were ones they sell to people on board which were disgusting just because of the amount of oil you could see in them. We will definitely be taking a boots meal deal or similar next time though!

Hi all
I know this is really short notice but ill post anyway. I'm due to fly to Bodrum from Glasgow tonight. The flight was originally a 2220 departure but recieved info saying it is now 2055. The flight number is TCX499K. However, when i type this in, it comes up with the old time or says that the flight is from Manchester and not Glasgow. Can any one clarify for me please. Also which aircraft will be taking us there?
thanks
Alanb

I don't Alan, but you could either wait for one of the aviation experts to come along, or you could take a look at Darren's "What Aircraft" guide which may well contain all the info you need:

alnab,
GLA-BJV-GLA (TCX499K/L) are operated by a Boeing 757-200. Speficially, G-FCLK is up there at the moment and should be your bird. Have a great time in Turkey

Hello
Wonder if someone can help me
We are flying Man-Cun 2/8/2010 on TCX234k and return Cun-Man on 16/8/2010 on TCX 234L. The flight departed manchester MONDAY 234K but returned to Glasgow the next day 234L. Can anyone let me know if thomas cook have made a flight change without informing anyone or is there a simple explanation.
We have also booked premium seats and just wondering if it is going to be one of TC normal long haul configeration planes.
Cheers

purcho1965,
If your flight is changed, Thomas Cook will inform you. There's no indicated of a change that I an see. Your flights are operated by the usual longhaul Airbus A330-200.

Thanks Dazbo
It just looked strange that the flight left Manchester and returned into Glasgow.
Would you have any idea what route the plane takes the day before
Many thanks

Glasgow school holidays start earlier than England, so a lot of extra flights left from GLA over the last couple of weeks instead of other UK airports, the flights this week, now go from English airports but take Scottish passengers back to GLA
purcho1965,
The flight prior to TCX234k/L is normally TCX011K/L (Montego Bay, Jamaica).
