It's personal preference. All seats have the same basic facilities in their respective cabins so it's wherever you prefer to sit.

Well there is 11 of us flying and I managed to get 4 rows. 23,24,25,26 A+B and 26 C for the odd one out lol. The other 2 have paid for Extra leg room seats so I'm guessing they will be up front!? Just keep trying to log on every day :-)

It depends on the aircraft type as there are extra legroom seats on exit / emergency exit rows.

They'll be on row 11 or 20/28 (subject to V1 or V2 aircraft).

Just booked to fly out to SFB from MAN on 22/10 returning on the 29/10.

There is an errata saying that economy seats on this flight will be 30" (I've booked premium). I'm flying out on TOM118 but flying back on TOM015 (there is also TOM119 flying back into MAN from SFB on that day). Does anyone have any idea which aircraft will be operating the return leg (TOM015). In particular will it actually have a premium cabin?! I can't book seats with Thomson as they are saying the seat plan hasn't been uploaded on to thier system yet.

Thanks for your help in advance.

The first thin that comes to mind is the aircraft that will be used will be a Thomsonfly 767 that has been reconfigured into Tuifly Nordic configuration. It's the Scandinavian version of Thomson for which Thomson airways do a lot of work for in the winter. Their back cabin(row35-47) is economy configuration. Rows 7-33 are normal 33" same as usual and rows 1-5 are premium (row 6 has 40") because of the different configuration that might be why it's not in the System yet.

Alternatively it could be they know they don't have time to reconfigure an economy 767 to long haul specs and they know at this stage they will be using one of those.

To be safe pick the middle cabin if your travelling in economy, if you then upgrade to premium then that gets taken off your upgrade price/refunded.

Hi brewerdave

Yes, its a bit of a mystery that TOM015 doesn't exist on the timetable. One thought I had was that it was a repositioned aircraft as Thomson move from their summer timetable to winter timetable. Its certainly an additional flight to the return leg of TOM118/9. I'm busy trying to find a seatmap for TUI Nordic as we speak.

long haul flights begining with 0 are usually from/to Gatwick, your aircraft probably originates in Gatwick that day before returning to manchester.

This time of year it's not uncommon to do LGW-bgi-Sfb-man with no passengers between bgi and sfb.

We received an email this afternoon letting us know that we can now reserve our seats online, but we cannot get into our booking. Do you think there is a delay between the sending out of emails and the Thomson website allowing people to log in? If my other half had told me 1/2 an hour earlier, I could have called and reserved over the telephone, but it was too late.

sydney,

Just keep trying. It could be the flight isn't uploaded yet.

Hi All,

I'm flying to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic on the 23rd November from Gatwick. Flight Number TOM070/071. Can anyone tell me what aircraft this will be and if it is possible to find out what films will be available during the flight.

Many thanks!
