Hi Guys,

I'm currently sat at Gatwick after spending 3hrs on a plane that's suffering technical issues (TOM028 if anyone's interested!). We've just been offloaded and told that another aircraft is being flown down from Manchester so that we can depart at approx. 5:15pm. Does anyone know what aircraft it's likely to be and the seating config?

Thanks!

Soulfish,

I hope you get away promptly later on today. It'll likely be a former Thomsonfly 767-300/ER operating your flight and don't be surprised if it's a short haul configured aircraft. I know it's not ideal, but it's better to get away onboard one of those than have an even longer delay.

Have a great holiday :cheers :cry

Hi Darren

We are flying out of Glasgow to Cancum on the 29th May TOM866 (I think?) can you tell me what aircraft this will be and also where the flight comes in from prior to ours?

Thanks :)

Hello Darren.

Any form of IFE en route to Dalaman. Prob 738, 27th May from MAN?

Nothing I'm afraid, according to research Thomson customers don't value or want IFE on their flights....

Hi
Just wondering if it's too early to know what plane will be operating Manchester to Cancun on 8 September and Cancun to Manchester 22 September- TOM 144 & TOM145?
Thanks :cheers

IFE information is on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). IFE was removed from aircraft from November 2011.

Welcome onboard :tup
GLA-CUN-GLA (TOM866/7) are operated by former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). The aircraft comes in from Sanford (TOM517) before operating your flight.

We are booked on TOM 144 on Sat 30th June. Are you able to advise which flight we should be looking at to track the plane on its way in?

Many thanks!

Cheers, is there any way of determining what layout of that plane it will be? There seems to be several....unless I'm missing something!

iwb100,

All the information is on our What Aircraft? guide (link below) including seat plans and aircraft / cabin photos if you click on the various links. The aircraft you're flying on is a former First Choice.
