Hi everyone,

am new here so be gentle LOL. We're lucky enough to be off to Florida on October 7th flying Glasgow to Sanford. We've treated ourselves to PE (there's me, DH, DD 4, DS will be 13 months so no seat, my mum, my brother and my 14 yo niece) I am approaching my 90 days and will be calling to book seats, I am wondering if you could let me know what plane I'll be on and any recommendations for which seats to ask for, I'm thinking 3 rows of 2 so we have windows. Any advice much appreciated

I'm so excited

x1lfb,

Please quote flight numbers when requesting aircraft information as there are several flights to Cancun. There are 5 V2 configured ex-FCA 767's and 1 V1 configured so chances are, it'll be a V2. It's imposable so say which as they are swapped and changed weekly.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

toots82,

Welcome onboard :tup

Please quote flight numbers when requesting aircraft information as there are two flights. This ensures we get the correct information for you. Assuming you're on the GLA-SFB-GLA (TOM796/7), they are operated by a former Thomsonfly Boeing 767-304/ER (winglets) in the long haul configuration (283 seats). You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). Seating is personal preference. All seats offer the same basic facilities other then the front row that have a little extra legroom, so it's whatever you prefer really.

critchley1987,

MAN-VRA-MAN (TOM172/3) is a former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER. There are no plans that I know of to change PE on these aircraft.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Hi Darren

Tis the time of year to call upon your ever increasing knowledge!

Do you happen to have details yet on the Thomson Long Haul Film lists for July/August 2011? (premium if you have them?)

Many thanks

love2fly :tup

Back to Mexico via Manchester (assume they are still operating Ex FCA on flight Tom104/105)

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

I despair of getting a straight answer from Thomson!!
Sent an email about 2 weeks ago querying Premium upgrade hold and hand baggage allowances. No reply so went to the local shop who made a phone call and told me that it was still 23kgs/7kgs per person.
Today I've received a reply to original email - now saying 20kgs/5kgs per person!!!!Further the "my booking" page says standard luggage allowance 20kgs.

Right, is anyone due to fly Premium in the near future and has received their tickets?? If so,what luggage allowances are on the ticket? :que

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

brewerdave,

It is still 23/7 as far as I know but you realy need to go off what's on your tickets when yo get them as that is the official document stating your allowance.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

I agree Darren ....but last holiday with Thomson we didn't get the ticket booklet until ~ 2 weeks before - my wife has normally packed/unpacked and packed again before then!!!! :rofl

If you ring the airline you can do it 90 days prior to your inbound flight. Online it is 60 days prior.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Hi Darren hope your ok. I was wondering if there has been any changes to our flight 7352 bhx to pfo on 27th July. It's ok you have told me it's 757 but as I said before Thomson have told us it could be a 767. Would just like to know because of the seating. Thanks Darren in advance
