The age of the aircraft makes little difference due to the high level of maintenance. Interior wise, there's not really any difference.

Derwentrocker,

All drinks are chargable in economy other than water on request by the glass. Drinks, other than champagne are complimentory in premium economy.

Derwentrocker,

As a general rule, full fair scheduled airlines offer complimentory drinks and meals. Charter (other than long haul) and low cost don't.

Yes of course you are right. We were going to upgrade to premium as always done it with virgin. That said, we have the exit seats with thomson so i am quite happy with that.

Welcome onboard :tup
LGW-PUJ-LGW (TOM050/1) are operated by former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER. If you're after a registration, I won't know until the day before but it makes little difference as all but 1 aircraft are identical. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Travelling to Cancun with Thomsons next month. Selected our seats again via Thomson website. Wanted row 20 but these where not available,ended up on row 19 A,B window seats. Will our seats have a recline that wont impact the people behind us as much because row 20 is legroom seats on most 767 Type of Jet air-planes ?

Flight is TOM 196...Have I got this right ?

Thanks darren

Booked in premium row 3 do you think this will be ok if A/C gets changed?
Reply
L10-11,

It's unlikely the aircraft will be changed. If it is, it'll be to a short haul configuration at the moment so there won't be a premium cabin onboard. It's unlikely to happen but if it does, you'd have the option of no premium seat of a delay and potential loss of a day or more of your holiday so I know which option I'd choose! a refund would be given for the flight(s) you didn't have a premium cabin.

AMSTERDAM,

Row 19 has full recline and a window. Assuming it's a V2 configured Boeing 767-300/ER, the emergency exit row is immediately behind to won't impact on those behind. Further details here

Hi Darren,

First of all thanks for updating the IFE listings.

We are due out to the Dominican on Tuesday on TOM044 and back on TOM045 on 2nd October. The other half has asked if there is anyway to find out what the meal choices are on the flights. I know on the way out it will be lunch and a snack and on the way back will be dinner and a breakfast. As nice as sausage bacon and eggs would be am not expecting it for the way home lol!

Many Thanks.
