I'm flying LGW-SSH-LGW in a few weeks, TOM858 24/11 and TOM859 on 04/12. I know both flights are 757s, does anyone know whether these will be operated by ex-TOM or FCA aircraft?
Also, at what point will be able to tell what specific aircraft will operate these? (i'm sad like that )
Was just wondering what aircraft is scheduled to operate TOM 4356/7 LGW-FUE-LGW on November 30th (outbound) and December 7th (inbound) - according to Flightstats it's been an A320 for most of October, but was a 757 yesterday... is this a change for the whole season?
October is the summer season, November through to end of April is the winter season so aircraft types are often changed due to different demands. LGW-FUE-LGW (TOM4356/7) are showing as a Boeing 757-200.
Thanks Darren, that was what I thought - one more question though... I heard about the IFE being withdrawn from the start of this winter season, but do you know if they still show the in-flight statistics/route maps on the screens?
We have booked Doncaster to Sharm on 12th December flight number TOM 808. Could you tell me what aircraft this will be, we have pre-booked seats and I now have to pick them. Are there any to avoid? I was looking at 7a & 7b are these windowless seats? Is there any that have slightly more room?
DSA-SSH-DSA (TOM808/9) are operated by a Bowing 737-800 (winglets). You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below) including a seating plan. All seats are economy and therefore offer the same seat pitch. The exception are extra legroom seats on rows 15 and 16. Seating is personal preference, there aren't any 'best' seats. Row 7 has windows.
Your flights will be have been confirmed quite a while ago as schedules are put together 12 months in advance. The Cancun flight is the summer flight number, it changes in winter. Everything will be confirmed when ou get your tickets in December. MAN-SFB-MAN (TOM104/5) are operated by a former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER. IFE for Jan / Feb won't be available until the beginning of January as it's changed every 2 months. I update the listing, linked from our What Aircraft? guide as soon as I get it. You can view the current listing (Nov / Dec) to give you an idea of what to expect.
