Thanks Guys,
Here's hoping for a FDxx!
I've previously done SSH in a Monarch 757 - I did say at the time never again!
One benefit now is that the middle seat will have a 2 year old on it - so my legs could go sideways!!!

I didn't find it too bad last year, as long as it's a 'blue' 752 anyway. With strong head winds, it was 6.5 hours on the return but with the slimline Recaro's, it was comfortable enough. The 5 hours back from Cyprus on the green 752 wasn't nice though.

Darren - don't you keep telling people that all the 757s are essentially the same inside?!
Hi Darren,
Thanks for the speedy reply, I know it doesn't really matter I just like to know. I have probably been on all of them at one time or anothr. is it ok if I ask you again nearer the time
Thanks,
Chris.

chriskim,
Not a problem, just post your flight details the day before and I'll let you know the likely aircraft.

Hello again,
Does anyone know if its possible to fly into 'La Romana' airport situated in Southern part of the Dom Rep direct from the UK ? I am led to believe that Thomson Airlines once did it, but have now ceased for reasons I simply dont understand ? The reason I ask is that despite having a brilliant holiday in Bayahibe,we thought the 2 hour white knuckle ride from Punta Cana in a private taxi was dangerous at best, and bordering on near suicidal on the return trip !
Can anyone help ?

Rotterdam,
The first time I flew in to the Dom Rep was in to LRM. Thomson Airways normally only fly in to Puerto Plata and Punta Cana. They fly in to La Romana on cruise charters on selected dates through the winter season. Thomas Cook used to fly in to LRM, but have scaled back so at present, it's only the cruise charters.

Thank you Darren for your help. 
Next year all the Thomson cruise charters will be through Barbados, no La Romana unfortunately
Hi guys
All this talk of blue & green 752's has made me wonder now........
We did Birmingham - Sharm a couple of years back on a 752 and, even though the both of us are pretty well dwarf-like, it was still a bit cramped. Last trip was long haul - a much happier experience in all ways as always. This year we've decided to go South again but without the Atlantic getting in the way so it's TOM 216 Manchester - Rabil (Boa Vista, Cape Verde) 20th June, TOM 217 return 4th July.
I would hope that on a 6 hour+ flight those in the know would be using the more comfy Recaro equipped cabins (I'd even print a "I
flight dispatchers" suitcase sticker ) - is that, subject to last minute changes, certain/possible/dashed my hopes?

baz657,
Aircraft are swapped and changed on a regular basis so it's too early to know the exact aircraft being assigned other than it being a Boeing 757-200. To put it in perspective, G-BYAY (ex-TOM / blue) operated the first flight of the season, G-OOBH (ex-FCA / green) operated the second and G-BYAY the third.
