Welcome onboard
LGW-MLE-LGW (TOM054/5) are operated by ex-FCA Boeing 767-300/ER. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). I'll not know the specific aircraft until the day before. G-OOAN (V1) is MAN based at the moment so unless that changes, you'll be on a V2 (no window on row 9).

Darren,

Thanks for this I guess I should have known about this but then its the only pair of seats left.

Thanks,
Mrlebon

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Hi there, just joined so apologies if this is in the wrong place!

I have just booked flights, economy, Man to Sfb, 10 June 2012, TOM 182/183.
I am about to select seats but the seatplan only shows 40 rows, 2-3-2. I cannot find this layout on any of the boeing 767 seatplans I have looked at and I need to know where the toilets are located before I confirm seats.

Please can anyone help?
Thanks

Pallan,

MAN-AYT-MAN (TOM512/530) are normally operated by Boeing 757-200, but I'll be able to double check closer to the time if you have dates.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Hi, does anyone know what planes are being used from Man to Pop Aug 25th. Was wondering if it's the 2-4-2 or a 2-3-2 configuration.?

Cheers :tup

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

danielle0216uk,

Please quote flight numbers when requesting aircraft information as there are often several flights. It's likely to be an ex-FCA 767 (2-3-2), but I can't check without a flight number.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

toev,

Welcome onboard :tup

Seating is very much personal preference. The seats you've booked are as good as any other. I've sat in row 14 for 6.5 hours, no complains from me. Seating is much of a muchness really on those aircraft so it's down to whatever you prefer. My only criticism, and it's only minor, you sometimes get a little draft being aft of the door 2 area. Row 14 has a window, it's 15 that doesn't. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

thanks for that. my son is looking forward to flying and sitting next to the window so we should be ok with these seats. if we sat further back we might end up over the wing and he might see less.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

toev,

The view from row 14 is a little obstructed due to the engine, but nothing major. These are views from row 13/14 for reference.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Do you know if the Manchester to Mahon flights will be a new 737?
Can't prebook seats when logging in yet.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

lighty89,

It depends which flight and when as there are several weekly flights to MAH. If it is a 737, it could be any of the fleet as they are swapped and changed pretty much weekly for maintenance and operational reasons. There are no guarantees it will be one of the newer ones with the sky interior, although there are several that are MAN based.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Just an update on seat selection.

As they had advised me, the selection now goes live 90 days ahead of your return flight both on-line and by phone, so there is no longer the difference. The downside of the new policy for those staying 14 nights is that those customers who are holidaying for 7 or 10 nights get to choose the outbound seats before you can.

We signed-in on the morning of the first day we were allowed and got exactly the seats we wanted for the return flight but had to settle for others on the outbound.

So the advantage against last year is the web selection opening at 90 days but the disadvantage is that it is 90 days from the return, not the outbound.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Hi Darren I phoned Thomson back this morning to book my seat on TOM 388.
They said there had been a flight change and they still didnt know which plane would be used.
It seems strange as it only 3 weeks today and they were able to book my seat for the return journey on TOM389.
Do you think the flight time will change if they have allocated the original plane onto another route?Thanks Jay.
