Any info on my question please Darren ... I see you answered Lilac Labradors question and maybe never saw mine above it ...?

charlie8,

Sorry, I must have missed yours, too busy watching for the heavily delayed inaugral flight of the Boeing 787-8 coming in to Manchester MAN-SFB-MAN (TCX414/5) are operated by Airbus A330-200 as far as I know. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Darren

No problems thanks very much

Thanks so much, Darren

I have booked a flight only with flythomascook,do I have to phone them 24/48hrs before returning home to reconfirm my flight.

Crispy,

I never bother, it's not really needed.

Darren

Thanks Darren.

Hi Darren, a quick one for you - have exausted online searching and there seems to be lots of info here and I am currently perplexed with a query!!

I am flying on TCX1866 in a few weeks time - I have confirmation that the plane being used is an A330-200, however they appear not to pre-sell the premium economy seats, rows 1-7 (or is it 8?). I was initially told that the seats were sold out - however, I did a bit more checking and they appear not to pre-sell these seats for any of their summer flights....weird.

Just wondering if you have any idea why they do this and if they make these seats available at check in?

Many Thanks
D

They don't sell the ex premium economy seats outbound due to the APD rules so they are allocated on a lottery basis. You would find out at check in if you have been allocated them. They can be prebooked inbound, but just the seats, no premium service.

Dunnyv,

Welcome onboard
You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). As Sunaddict mentions, they aren't premium economy seats, they are extra legroom only. Allocation is explained here.

Afternoon Darren,

I enquired about a flight back in January and the you advised me that the flight number was not showing as yet. Would it be at all possible to check again for me. I would like to know the type of aircraft that opertates this flight and if possible the inbound flight number prior to this flight from gatwick.

27/07/12 TCX1886 13.50 Gatwick to Antalya
return on
10/08/12 TCX 1887 21.25 Antalya to Gatwick

Thanks

Jon

gooner1977,

I still can't find LGW-AYT-LGW (TCX1886/7) on the system. The only TCX flight I can see operating on those dates is LGW-AYT-LGW (TCX1744/5). The 1744 departs LGW at 15:00, the 1745 at 00:45. They are operated by Boeing 757-300 / 757-200 respectively.

Darren

Thanks for looking again for me. Getting a little worried, the flight numbers and times I gave are correct, I was offered the other flight you quoted but chose the earier 13.50 flight. Fingers crossed it is still operating.

i think i might have confused my self on this but here goes , i was looking at booking my seats on flight TCX7162/3 09/08/12....23/08/12 and then i lost the plot. i think i read that it could be a 757/200 ok i thought easy select your seat but its not as easy as that , if i chose seats on a 757/200 confg 1 and i actually board a 757/200 confg 2 then the seats are a different lay out , so i went on the flythomascook website to actually select my seats and low and behold its showing a 320/200 , for you expetts out there whats the difference in the seat plans think its gonna be row 6AandB , but i dont want to pay my money and have terrible seats . Am i making things complicated

Llindy,

BRS-ZTH-BRS (TCX7162/3) are operated by Airbus A320-200, not Boeing 757-200. When you select your seats, the seat plan for the actual aircraft you're flying on is displayed. It's unlikely to change unless there's an operational reason. The vast majority of customers get the seat they've specified. In terms of the seat plans, there's not really any difference other than the number of rows (30 rather than 41) as the aircraft share the same interior configuration. Seating is personal preference really.

Not complicated, but maybe reading too much in to it. Given all the seats offer the same basic facilities, other than the extra legroom, it's really just a preference of whether you want to be at the front, back, centre, isle or window. Other than that, it really doesn't make a lot of difference.

They're as good as any other and have a window. I flew to Paphos on that row a few years ago.

Darren

thanks Darren ......your a great help

hi Darren....would you like to throw some light on what effect this will have on our holiday travel ect...

The Thomas Cook Board has completed its strategic review, announced last year, which includes reducing its debt by shedding its assets, including the sale and leaseback of 17 to 19 aircraft, negotiations for which were at an advanced stage, said Weihagen.
