Hi Dazbo
Wonder if you can help me with what type of plane I am flying on
Flying with Thomas Cook Xmas Day to join a cruise in Barbados flight number TCX146
The flight seat booking open yesterday and the seating arrangement is 2,4,2 with no premier cabin
Just wondering what plane and seat pitch we can expect.
Have been spoilt as flown with Dreamliner last couple years and know Thomas Cook pitches aren't as generous but think this must be one of Thomas Cook older long haul planes.


It will be one of their newest. All the A330s are 2-4-2 but the two newest, the ex BMI and the Air Tanker lease are all economy. Since the A330s were refurbished the seat pitch is 31" in economy the same as full service carriers.

I'm flying from Gatwick to Cancun on 24th Sept 15 on TCX412 and back on 8th Oct on TCX413. Could anyone tell me what plane this will be? It says on my itinerary 332-321, but I have no idea!

TIA xx :)


It's an A330-200.

Hi,
Could you advise what plane I'm going to be on next week TCX830 4/10/15 - TCX831 16/10/15 as I've been reading that cooks have been switching planes, I have premium seats booked both ways and when I booked was lead to believe it would be a one of the new upgraded type

Thanks

We have just returned from Menorca with Thomas Cook on Avion plane. Very comfortable and seemed to have more leg room than normal Thomas Cook .

Its a leased Avion Airbus A320-200. They're no different to what TCX operate.

It should have a USB but it will probably only power your device while it's in use. It won't actually charge it.

The Indian Navy has told the Airport Authorities that the runway will be closed between 10pm and 4 am for runway repairs. The Goan tourism industry isn't happy because it's the start of the season. It's already closed for civilian aircraft daily between 7am and 1pm. Perhaps they should do their repairs then :think

Is it the airline you've been asking about it? I can believe the agents and tour operators perhaps haven't had the info filtered through to them yet, but the airline should know providing of course they have been told.
