Hi were flying to Gran Canaria on the 16 Sept 2013 from manchester. I know its early but just wondered if anyone knew what thomson plane it will be. Ive looked at seat plans and it tell you 2 planes A321 and 676 which one is it most likely to be thanks.
Samclare,
Do you have flight numbers? There are often several flights so it's useful to quote them if you have them. MAN-LPA-MAN are likely to be operated by Boeing 757-200 or 737-800.

Hi yes sorry flight numbers are MAN-LPA TOM 2112 16th september 2013 and LPA-MAN TOM2113 23rd september 2013
samclare,
The TOM2112/3 are showing as Boeing 767-300/ER (short haul) at the moment but if you remind me closer to the time, I'll confirm things for you.

Thanks darren will do.
Flying to Dom.Rep. on 3rd Jan.2013,(returning 17th) TOM 070/TOM 071. Just wondered if you had any idea which plane and seat configuration it is likely to be.We (2 couples) have booked premium cabin,and ideally want to book 2 x2 seats behind the other, and also the 2 men want window seats!!! I am thinking any of the rows 3-8 A/B ...Would these suit our needs? Thanks in anticipation.
milliemeg,
TOM070/1 are operated by former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER. Any of the seats you mention will meet your needs.

Hi Darren,
It's the pest again
Managed to reserve our seats at long last, Thomson were very slow letting me in to book them, anyway, the seats from 16 on were all booked and I don't like the back of the plane it's always a bit noisy for me, I booked 19F & 19G, other than the wing is there anyting about these seats not to like.
Thanks

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 travellerand finds that being able to look out the window helps him.
Thanks
Irene
Irene67,
I've sat in that row on a 14 hour flight. They are as good as any others in the economy section. All seats have the same facilities, other than extra legrom, so it's just personal preference. It's towards the rear half of the wing so you'll still have a partial view of the ground. You'll be on a V2 aircraft so have the overwing exits behind you so you can recline your seat without impacting on those behind.

Thanks for that Darren,much appreciated.
"The flights should be operated by Boeing 767-300/ER, certainly the return is"
The return flight is now on flightextras but it is shown as 42 rows of 8 seats being 336 seats - all 42 rows have 8 seats - no variations - any idea which this plane is please ? seats are 2 -4-2 . Flight TOM0079 on 23rd Dec - BGI to Gatwick - thanks. I thought there would be some premium seats and it does not show which are emergency exit or bulkhead seats.
Bizarrely the outbound flight which they are selling still is shown as no seats left to reserve and I have not reserved mine !. This is TOM4794 going to Lisbon from Gatwick for the Thomson Dream package cruise.

The outbound is a 757, the inbound an Arkefly 767, it will be one of their own aircraft not the ex-tfly aircraft they are currently leasing. so the seat layout is slightly different. It wont have 336 seats,but 265 I think its all economy but 2-3-2 throughout.

Thanks - I got this seating plan so it looks like on of these ! Thanks for taking the trouble to answer.
As the flights are cruise only - the outbound if it is full will be 233 seats so the return flight will have about 30 empty seats as a minimum !

It doesn't usually work out that way, maybe some customers fly from an alternative uk airport or they put a second flight on so it will be the outbound flight that is half empty. Ive been on the first inbound flight before and its been chocka block
Hi Dazbo. Been tracking Tom022 from LGW-CUN as I will be on it 5 weeks today! :-)
See its being operated by G-00AN today. Just wondering when you will be posting up the IFE for Nov/Dec AND any idea what the good Thomson people will be feeding me! We have 33-34-35 AB for our party! Can't wait! :-)

racegirl3075,
IFE is released at the beginning of the month when it's changed (every 2 months) so I'll update the link on our What Aircraft? guide (link below) at the beginning of November. Meals are normally a choice of chicken or beef.

Hiya!
Just booked our holiday for next year, off to Mexico!!
We're flying MAN-CUN, 26th feb-12th march TOM 122/3. Just wondering if we will be on an ex FCA or TOM?
Also booked premium, can you let us know which seats don't have windows so we know not to book them?
Thanks!
