It's a while since I've been through RHO so I wouldn't know to be honest. I would assume it's like you've experienced coming through LPA. Online check-in only really works with hand luggage as you still have to check your baggage in so the time saving is lost. There should really be a dedicated baggage drop-off desk but not everywhere has it.

Tweetie, answered on the other thread, but for information with Thomas Cook Airlines you can't check in online for your inbound flight, only on flights leaving the UK.

We can't comment on load factors, but given the time of year, it's safe to say it'll be pretty full. If you don't want to be split-up and for peace of find, that's what pre-booking is for.

Hi,

First post so here goes; hope someone can help,

We're flying to Sanford from Glasgow on flight number TCX634, Sunday 29TH July 2012. Can anyone please tell me what the aircraft is likely to be; would it be the Airbus A330?

We live in Northumberland and flying from Glasgow seemed to be the cheapest option when I booked way back last October - we have 2 boys, aged 12 and 15.

Mant thanks,
:)

GLA-SFB-GLA (TCX634/5) are indeed operated by Airbus A330-200. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Last year we pre booked seats and went online to book the seats we wanted which was the whole back row so that we didn't have anyone behind us and also to be near the toilets. when we checked in on the day we were given the row in front of the ones we had booked and when i questioned it they said it was because the size of the aircraft had changed, so what is the point??

hayley/john,

Aircraft changes occur from time to time for many different reasons, although it's not that common. You were just unlucky on the day. Most people will get the seats reseaved.

Hi there,

Looking for aircraft types for our Holiday to Lanzarote in July. MAN to ACE on 5th July, TCX2024 and return ACE to MAN on 15th July, TCX2319.

Also, do these aircraft have any inflight entertainment at all?

Thanks in advance,

Gary S.

WellFan,

MAN-ACE-MAN (TCX2024/2319) are currently showing as operating with Boeing 767-300/ER / Boeing 757-200 respectively. There's no IFE onboard. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Sorry, posted in the wrong place before :duh We booked a holiday, for the first time with Thomas Cook, for March 2013, when we booked in it February we were told that we would be able to book extra leg room seats after the new system had been integrated in March 2012. I've tried to call them, but it's saying I can't book any extras more than 90 days in advance, is this correct? I know I'm a bit early here, but am starting to panic as my 6' 6" oh does not do non extra leg room seating for very long! Thank you in advance ;)

davnic11,

That's correct. 90 days is the magic number although it's sometimes worth a call a day or two before in case the flight is loaded early. TCX are having a few issues at the moment though so you'll just have to bear with it.
