If you book a Thomson Platinum holiday, you have an increase from 5kg carry on to 7kg. What I can't find in the T&Cs in the back of the brochure, is, can you take a larger bag?

gbailey141,

The aircraft aren't due to leave until the end of the winter 12/13 season (end of April 2013). The 787-8's will then be introduced in to the long haul programme commencing May 2013 where 3 787-8's will be online by then, replacing the 3 ex-FCA 763's that are leaving. There won't be any shortfall in capacity. The other 763 is short haul and will be replaced by other aircraft in the fleet. 787's will be used on some short haul routes for crew familiarisation from March 2013. All the details are on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

thanks for the quick reply darren, a bit disappointing that we cant choose seats the same time as anyone travelling for one week instead of a week after them, will just have to keep our fingers crossed that we manage to get seats next to each other and not in front/behind.
my friend i am travelling with has a phobia of flying and is worried i wont be next to her now!.

just an after thought but do you know if it is possible to book the outbound flight seats as soon as they are released then book the inbound 2 weeks later when they are released?

It depends on who you get on the phone. Sometimes you can book outbound at 90 days prior and ring back and book inbound 90 days prior. Sometimes you have to wait until 90 days prior to your return flight to book either, and it has been known to be able to book both at 90 days prior to the oubound flight. It seems to vary depending you who you actually speak to on the phone.

I meant to say. When I picked my seats for my flight to Goa, the front half of the plane was reserved for people without meals.

I had the meals thrown in as part of the package, but wanted to sit at the front end of the plane.

Not really 100% "Your seat, your choice"!!!
