BobAgg,

G-VYGK already has a TCX interior.

It has no seatback IFE, but it does have 34" pitch so different from the other A330s. Last month Christoph Debus said "AirTanker will get IFE and the same cabin interior like all other TCX aircraft next months".

Has it been done, because so many people are complaining they've been told that they won't have seatback IFE?

Morning all, your resident EGPF-KLAS A330 pest back with another question!

Itinerary for my TCX172 Glasgow to Las Vegas on 6th July now says the flight will be on ' Thomas Cook TCX172 (332-330 HiFly) which has me wondering if TCX have drafted in a HiFly A330 for the route, I was initially expecting the Air Tanker.

They can fly me out on one of their old 752s for all I care, however my curiosity is getting the better of me!

Thank you again for your time!

Regards,

Bob.

I think the Air Tanker is going in for refit to bring it in line with TC other A330s. henced the leased Hi-Fly A330.

G - TCXB positioned up from Perpignan into Manchester last night, and is now currently doing TCX848 to JFK!

G - VYGK is not currently flying so assuming has gone into refit today.

Also of note G-OMYT went Tec (again) in Cuba yesterday again, due to land into Manchester around 20hrs late!!!

HI Fly to LAS, that's gotta hurt!

Why would it hurt anymore than on a TCX A330?

Because the leg room is shocking and it has no seat back entertainment; not enjoyable for an 11 hour flight to LAS.

The Hi-Fly A330 doing the EGPF-KLAS run on 6th July has 32" seat pitch as opposed to 31" on the Air Tanker & does have Seatback IFE. It also has 38" seat pitch it's 42 seat 'business cabin' so if you've pre-booked on rows 1-6 & Thomas Cook don't decide to shift you then you're onto a winner.

Hi - we are on Thomas Cook flight TCX8146 from Doncaster to Palma on 21st July and wanting to pre-book seats. Would anyone be able to tell me why seat 12F says BLOCKED/INOPERABLE in the seat descriptions? Is there actually a seat there? Would the seat next to it be affected by this (eg narrower etc)? Sorry if this is a dumb question but am v.curious!
Thank you for any replies!

Difficult to predict as aircraft are rotated on a regular basis.

All Thomas Cook longhaul flights are operated by A330s and they've all been refurbished.

Hiya sunaddict,

Thanks for your reply, it's a long time since we flew with Thomas Cook, we've been using Thomson and jet2 recently.

We went on the Dreamliner last year and that was good. Have you any idea about those seat numbers please, I hate sitting next to a blanked out window.

Kind regards,
Anne

I'm not 100% sure on window blanks since the seat pitch was reduced when they were refurbished.
