Hi there,

Due to fly Manchester to Cancun 1st Jan TOM122 returning 15th Jan TOM123, We are in economy, Darren has already told me that it should be an ex First Choice 767-300ER we are on and he also told me that rows 16 forward and rows 29 back would avoid the wing, I know Darren is on holiday but could anyone else let me know if any seats on these rows don't have windows, my hubby is not a great traveller and finds that being able to look out the window helps him.

Thanks

Irene

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

valnbob,

Welcome onboard :tup

LGW-HOG-LGW (TOM094/5) are operated by former First choice Boeing 767-300/ER. Seating is personal preference. Other than extra legroom, they all offer the same basic facilities so it's whether you prefer a window, isle or centre seat towards the front or back. your main meal will be a choice of chicken or beef with a snack box normally a couple of sandwiches about an hour before landing. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below) with lots more information.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Mustafaholiday,

Do you mean flight number or registration? It's too early to give a registration as the aircraft can change between now and then. The incoming flight is from Cancun (TOM122/3).

Only inbound,thanks.

Seating looked like it was a 2-3-2 so that means ex FCA right ?

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Hi, we are flying to Cancun from Newcastle (TOM392) on Friday 5th oct, is there any chance you know where the aircraft originates from before coming up to do Newcastle's long-haul from Thursday onwards??

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

jays25,

The aircraft operates NCL-SFB (Sanford)-NCL (TOM670/1) before operating your flight. Have a great holiday,

Hi Darren, thanks,
Do you know where the aircraft comes from before the NCL-SFB?

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

jays25,

You beat me to it, I was just checking! It positions in from Manchester or Gatwick, depending on which aircraft is sent to cover the flights.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Hi Darren,

Just noticed that there is a version 1 & version 2, is there a big difference and what one are we likely to be on, hope this isn't a stupid question.

Thanks again

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Irene67,

The difference is limited to a couple of rows. The premium section is slightly different as well as the front of the economy cabin and the position of the overwing exit row. Other than that, they are the same. Only 1 of the 6 aircraft are in the V1, the other 5 are V2 so it's more likely to be a V2 than a V1. As aircraft are rotated regularly, it's hard to say which will be on your flight. Seat plans for both are linked from our What Aircraft? guide (link below). The V1 aircraft (G-OOAN) is due to be withdrawn from use in Winter 12/13 once the Boeing 787-8's are delivered.
