Hi Darren
We are going on TCX 472 Man-SFB on 26th July, returning 9th August.
I know we are on a Airbus 330 and I think it comes in from Cancun before our flight. Do any of the TCX fleet still have underbody cameras on and if so which ones? Have been on TCX flights before with these on and its great watching the take offs and landings.
Closer to the day I might ask if you know which plane we will be on, although I the seat plans show them all having the toilets downstairs.
Thanks
Hi Darren
We have now finally booked our flights (thanks for the many replys on the mon/tom threads)!
We fly out on TCX 2038 (MAN-TFS) 12/07/13
return ZB 569 23/0713
I beleive these will be a 767 (TCX) and A300 (Mon). Do you know if these will have in IFE and also where the flights will be coming in from (I suspect it may be to early to tell yet)?

roadrunner,
All the TCX A332's have the external flight cameras fitted (pilot view and belly cam). It makes no difference which aircraft is assigned to your flight on the day as all the fleet up until November have the same interior, ie ex-MYT aircraft with the downstairs toilets.

I'm pleased you've finally booked your flights. It was getting to the stage you needed a flights topic to yourself! IFE information is detailed on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). TCX2038 is the first flight out at 0700 for that aircraft. The aircraft comes in early morning then nightstops. ZB569 is the reciprocal of the outbound flight (ZB568 from MAN).

Thanks for the info. I also took your advice regarding seats and have booked the last 2 at the back of the plane as I also felt it gave a bit more leg room when we went on them last time as well as not having to worry about people sat behind.
Hopefully we don't have the problems that TCX had today at Manchester!!
We are planning to do day before check in and we take off at 09.50, would arriving at the Airport at 07.00 be too early?

Issues arrise every so often, all airlines have that. TCX had an engine failure on one of their A332's yesterday that has lead to knock-on delays while it's sorted. It's up to you when you arrive at the airport. If you want to look around duty free, have breakfast, chill before your flight then 0700 might be a good time for you. As long as you're at the boarding gate around 45 minutes before your flight, bear in mind you'll need to leave enough time to clear security, arrive whenever it suits you best. The recommended check-in time for long haul is 3 hours before departure but if you've checked-in day before 1.5-2 hours is fine.

They only operate three of the type (G-TCCA/B, G-DAJC) so it'll be one of them. It makes no difference as they are all the same. As they are rotated regularly, it's impossible to know this far in advance which it will be next week. They're all operating via MAN at the moment.

markdoc,
The aircraft comes in late Monday evening / early Tuesday morning then night stops after operating either TCX2548/9 from Antalya or TCX2826/7 from Dalaman. If you're worried about delays, there's a few hours between flights to absort anything minor.

Darren, thank you for your reply, my computer seems to be playing up and I don't seem to have been receiving feeds etc through on the forum, appreciate your help on this one !!
hopefully someone who has flown recently can help me. Thomas Cook now have James Martin dishes advertised as their in flight meals, however all their adverts just mention what seems to be a single course. On previous flights as well as the chicken/beef/whatever you also got a small salad or melon for starter, a bit of cake for dessert and bread/butter/cheese.
Are the new meals still 3 course or are just the single course?

Normally it's a small roll, tray of hot food and a muffin/small cake and a fruit juice cup.
I am flying to Sanford on TCX414 on 23 July 2013
Are you able to let me know where the previous flight is coming from.
Thanks
Alan

Hi there.
A few years back (yes it's been that long since my bum was on a 'plane seat!) I was able to download a copy of the Thomas Cook in flight magazine which showed what items were available to buy in flight. Can anyone please tell me if it's possible to download the current magazine?
Many thanks.
