Thanks so much Darren

Do you know if any other airline (e.g. Monarch) flies uses an aircraft to PVK with more seat pitch?

fpa,

Seat pitches for the main charter airlines are given on our What Aircraft? guide. They all offer exactly the same seat pitches. If you want more room, extra legroom seating is available at extra cost and subject to availability. The alternative is to look at scheduled airlines but they don't offer much more and you'll have to connect through Athens.

Re my posting Manchester to Mombasa 9th February, no premier class.
We boarded on time and the first 5 rows were premier. The people in premier had not
been notified, but passengers in rows 6&7 had all been called to say that due to the
aircraft being in for service there would be no premier section on flight.
The crew apologised, and left row 8 vacant, and we all finished up with 2 seats each.
The service was the best ever, and we got a full refund of our outbound premier money.
We had been allocated seats 4c &d, so I presume it was the first to book get the seats
Anyhow, alls well that ends well ;)

Can anyone confirm that the premium "luxury" amenity packs are still not being issued. Are people still not getting the perks they paid for.

Hi
Once again looking for help. We're flying Manchester to Male on 29 March TOM188 at 17.50 and I'm wondering what the plane will be doing earlier that day so I keep an eye out for any delays. :think
Many thanks

Hi Darren

We are flying LGW-HOG TOM094 on Monday 7 March. Please can you tell me where the aircraft is due to fly in from.

Thanks

BethR,

The aircraft operating TOM188 would normally be flying in on an ad-hoc cruise charter from Barbados (TOM112/3), but the last one is on 21st March until 4th April so there might not be anything before your flight on the 29th March.

Sunaddict,

The aircraft operating TOM094/5 comes in from La Romana (TOM060/1).

Hi Darren

Please could you advise me which aircraft will be due to fly from Manchester to Male on 25th May 2011, flight no TOM188. Is this due to be a Thomson or First Choice plane?

As we have never been to the Maldives before want to get a good look at the atols as we are flying in so could you also advise me which rows avoid the wings for a better view?

Thanks for your help.

lucky7,

Flights to Indian Ocean destinations (Mombassa and Male) are operated by former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER's. Assuming you aren't in premium (row 1-9), you're better off looking at a row towards the rear of the aircraft if you don't want any wing in your way, so anything aft of about row 30. Avoid the last row as there's no window.

Darren,Do you know if TOM 434 to Monastir is still scheduled to leave Newcastle on March 20th at 14.55?
I have read on another forum that someone has received their tickets with this flight showing.
They booked last November so I wonder if Thomson have overbooked this flight over the last few weeks with all the great deals that were available.
As we only booked 2 weeks ago I suppose that may be the reason we have been moved to the Thomas Cook flight.
I just wish Thomson would tell the truth if this is the case and not fob us off with the excuse that the airport has cancelled the flight.

Jay Trip,

The flight schedule shows the following;

Dep NCL Sun 14:55, Arr MIR 19:20, Boeing 737-800, Flight Number TOM434

Flight times are confirmed on tickets. Flights are showing as operated by TCX at 0600 now though.

You'll have to ask Thomson that.
