ok!
i was able to choose my seats today. tom138 17th may. it seems that thomsons are only allowing me to pick, between rows 20 and 40!!
my choose was, rows 34 and 35 a and b!!
what do you think?
thomson's seat plan doesnt show, toilets, bulkheads or doors. so i used your seat map. how accurate is it and will row 34 have trays be in the arms of the seats??
thanks dazbo!

buzzer14,

Row 34 is as good as any other really. Tray tables are seat back. Only those in premium and extra legroom rows fold out from the arm rest. The seats plans are accurate for respective types.

i've just noticed. the seat config,thomson have sent me, is a 2 3 2.. does this mean, it will be an ex-first choice, rather than ex-thomson as expected?
flight tom134/135 17th may birm-cancun.
thanks.

You are quite lucky because of the cancellation of male and kenya and a bit of regigging around this wednesday and thursday flights due to be operated by the ex-TOM are now ex-FCA

Hi,
Have just booked Premium seats BHX-CUN-BHX 17th may on the 135/136. Seats are 6A and 6B, Do these seats have a full or partial window view.

tigger,

They have a full view. It's only row 9 that doesn't. If you look at the photos linked from our What Aircraft? guide (link below), there are a couple of photos of the front of the aircraft with explanation.

Going back to this booking your seats business. Still gettting an error message which I never got before. I aways got the message advising me that it was too early rather than the message that my booking can't be found.

So I thought I go and call them. My departure date is 17th May so well within the supposed 90 days before departure criteria quite often quoted on here.

Call was answered fairly quick and my booking reference was found. I asked for seats 5A and 5B and was put on hold. After a minute or so, the operative (from an Indian call centre - didn't know that they used them) told me that the seat plans weren't uploaded yet as it was more than 90 days before my return flight date and that on the 4th March I should be able to book them.

Rather strange that some are now able to book seats for 17th May departures whilst I can't :que

MarkJ,

It all depends when the flight is uploaded on to the system. Some flights seem to be uploaded before the dates, some after.

Thanks Buzzer and Dazboo too.

I am flying to Cancun too (but from LGW) on the 17th May.

Will try tomorrow and see what happens.

Me thinks there is still something wrong. I never used to get the error message telling me that my booking could not be found.

Will keep everybody updated.

Have you tried logging into manage my booking and clicking on the link on that page which is called something like seats and extras?

buzzer14,

As I've mentioned, seating is personal preference. Only you can tell if you've made a mistate or not. The Seats you've chosen have recline and a window.
