Certain groups of staff within the airline have been saying exactly what you have said above ukbill for months, apparently paid focus groups have been telling Thomson Airways that they would rather have burger and chips, I know the airline management read these forums hopefully it will Dawn on them that maybe traditional meals are still wanted.


Trouble with focus groups is the questioning, Would you prefer a cheeseburger to a traditional meal? is a different question to What kind of meal would you like?

Likewise Would you forgo entertainment for a cheaper holiday? or Would you like inflight entertainment? Both the same question but usually produce two different answers


If i'm on a flight up to 4 hours i'm not too bothered in having a meal, if i fly to somewhere like Egypt the flights are usually 9am-3pm out and 5pm-10pm back and i would usually purchase a meal and would prefer traditional over burgers , i'm ok with the pricing of meals, and i find the same with in-flight entertainment , obviously prices for flights are important too and the LCC's have pushed down prices by offering no frills service and i think the likes of thomson have to copy to compete.

Please Thomson don't head down the burger route, it's all stodge and heavy carbs. Not condusive to sitting on down for 10 hours and I assume it would just smell like McDonalds :(

Hi does anyone know what plane I will be flying on from gatwick to holguin cuba on the 24th oct? Flight number is TOM094. We have booked rows 23 24 25 26 seats A+B. I'm hoping these have windows on them. Most of the front of the plane was already booked. We are getting married over there :-)

That's up to you. They are on sale but you can take and use your own if you like. You'll just need an adapter.

Thanks Darren, I've just read a few of your trip reviews. They make for some good reading and are very detailed. So it will be the 767 Which is the less cramped version which is great news :-)

Hi Darren,

Please could you let me know which plane I will be flying on from Birmingham to Paphos on 31st August flight number TOM7352?

I'm a bit of a nervous flyer so any information will be great!

Thanks

Hi Darren,

Thank you so much for your quick reply! I've checked out the seating plan and it seems the B757-200 only have 41 rows but we have booked seats 43H and 43G both there and back. When we were choosing our seats the formation was 2-4-2. Could the planned plane have changed since we booked (about 6 weeks ago)? The reason I ask as I mentioned I'm a bit nervous flying and have to have an aisle seat which is why we pre-booked.

Thanks again

chewett19,

It's looking like a schedule change in that case and it's been upgraded to a short haul configured Boeing 767-304/ER (328 seats / winglets).
