It's probably a bit early to ask but what a/c is likely to operate TOM4668/9 LGW-FUE-LGW in January 2013?

Thanks in advance

Dear Darren,

Thank you for your help. I have finally booked the flight.

However I have a huge problem.

Yesterday, I have called Thomson to book the flight from Manchester to Kavala with the return flight. Currently I am in Greece and I told the employ my debit card details and when he tried to tell me my reference number I run out of credits and I lost connection. The supposed charge was 400 pounds.

Then I called the company THREE times in order to triple check what was going on. All the times, the employees told me that there was no charge from my debit card and there was no booking.

One employee told me that I can book the flight cheaper through internet with the specific dates and thus I did with £ 372.98

However, I contacted my bank and they told me that there were two charges in my debit card.

1) approximately 400 pounds from tui uk ltd
2) £ 372.98 for the actual booking

I have called Thomson again (you cant imagine how many euros I have spend calling them all the times) and they guranteed that there was only one charge ( £ 372.98) and nothing else!

I have lost 400 pounds as my bank here in Greece told me from "tui uk ltd"

I really need help Darren...

Thanks in advance

There's not really much we can do to help from here I'm afraid. All I can suggest is you wait until you return home and call Thomson to sort it out from there. You should really have sorted your return flight before you travelled as we suggested last week.

keithy69,

MAN-FUE-MAN (TOM2662/3) are operated by Airbus A321-200, although I'll double check when I get my pc back on friday (assuming it's fixed!) as I know it changes at some point through the season. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Hi Darren, Flying to Dom.Rep. on 3rd Jan.2013,returning 17th Jan. Flight no's TOM 070 / TOM 071. Just wondered if you know what type of plane it might be. We have booked premium cabin and as 2 couples we are hoping for 2 x2 seats behind each other with a clear view window at both...if poss!! Any idea of rows that fit my criteria,or am i pushing my luck? If it is too soon I will ask again nearer the time. Thanks in anticipation,Paula PS. Both men say they prefer not to sit in the 1st row (heaven only knows why!)

Hi all,

I wonder if anyone knows if there is a particular aircraft that is used on this flight? I understand Thomson flights are pretty crammed in at the absolute minimum of 28" seat space. Does it matter what time of year you fly as to what aircraft they use? We are flying 3rd October.

I wonder if there is a standard aircraft for this flight if anyone knows the rows which are emergency exit seats or any rows with a tad more legroom - not so much a problem for me, but my other half is very tall and there doesn't seem to be the option to purchase extra legroom seats for this flight online, only to pay to reserve our seats (which we have done).

Is it worth calling Thomson to see if I can book that over the phone or just wait until check-in and hope for the best?

Thanks for your help in advance!

For the past four weeks TOM4364 appears to have been a Boeing 757-200.
It seems a fair guess that this would continue to the end of the season, though some of the experts on HT may have accurate future detailed schedules.
Your flights are within the Thomson seat selection timeframe of 3 months so it might be that all the extra legroom seats on this particular flight are already booked.
This does seem unlikely though since the flight doesn’t yet seem to be full, Thomsons website just let me do a trial booking for 14 seats on that flight quite happily.
If it’s important to you to get the extra legroom, I wouldn’t leave it to chance when you get to the airport since Thomson do seem to pre-allocate seats in advance. I’d give the airline a call.

As it doesn't offer the option of booking extra legroom seats if you are doing a new booking, it would appear that there are no extra legroom seats left. There aren't that many of them and they are always very popular.

I am flying BHX-DLM TOM 654 on Sat 01/09/12 I know it will be a 757 aircraft but does anybody know the Reg of the aircraft that are currently based at BHX ? It looks like from Flytecomm that there is three 757's and 2 737-800s based there at the min.

Also where abouts does the aircraft that operates TOM 654 come in from ?

uno28,

Your aircraft normally comes in from Alicante (TOM7604/5) normally and is likely to be G-OOBC, but could change for operational reasons between now and tomorrow.

milliemeg,

TOM070/1 are operated by Boeing 767-300/ER. It'll likely be a former First Choice, but I can confirm that nearer to your fligh. You'll find extensive aircraft information including seat plans on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). Seating by the windows are in pairs but avoid row 9 as there is no window on that row. If they both want to sit at the fron, you can always go for both front rows but then you'll have the centre seats in the way.

Hi Darren,

I am flying from LGW - MBA (TOM076-077) Kenya on the 9th of November. Just wondering if you know if they are using the exe Tom 767 or ex FCA 767's for this route?
The reason I ask is on our return from Cuba last year they subbed in the exTOM 767 and I didn't find it a pleasant experience! Too many seats crammed in for an 8-9 hour flight IMO. Especially as I had a 4 hour drive home straight after.

Many thanks

Just checked my photos and it was G-OBYD we returned on last year.

noooooobs,

LGW-MBA-LGW (TOM076/7) are ex-FCA 76W's. Enjoy Kenya, one omy favourite places.
