shrimper,

Which seat did you choose for your outbound flight? If you don't want to be over the wing, you're best choosing a row towards the front or rear of the aircraft and staying well clear of middle numbers.

Hi

We're flying to Cape Verde on 24/7/2013 from LGW. Flight no TOM782. What plane will this be? Does it have IFE?
Does Thomson do the seat allocation at checkin or night before? (not sure whether to prebook seats).

Thanks in advance.

lilac labrador,

LGW-SID-LGW (TOM782/3) are operated by Boeing 757-200. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). Seating is allocated by a computer model the day before departure. It takes in to account those that have selected seats, families etc and then slots remaining passengers in to available seating. The vast majority of passengers under the same booking will be seated together. However, due to the nature of aircraft seating, it's inevitable some won't be sat together or be across an isle / one behind the other. For peace of mind, pre-selected seats are worth considering if you want to be sat together.

Booked my seats today with Thomsons, very happy.
Gla-Sfb-Gla seats 3A/B + 4A/B, same seats on return (although the return sector shows A+C, due to the seatplan showing the dreamliner).
The phone number I used was 02476 283046, got through no problem.
One more thing on my list done

Need A Hol,

Did thomson have any comments on if the return flight is likely to be 767/787?

Hi,

We fly out on the 23rd June and return on the 07th July, when we were selecting the return sector she said it was still planned to be the dreamliner, however when I called Thomsons a few weeks ago to book my outbound seats I was told it would be a 767! Thinking it will probably be a 767 as passengers have been refunded for not flying on the dreamliner. What you are told depends on the staff member at thomsons you are talking to, they are definitely not all singing from the same song sheet if you know what I mean.

Yes I agree if you look on the Thomson 787 blog some of the staff tell people returning in July that they will be on 767's and some that they will be on 787's.

When I asked what aircraft im flying out on as they had told another passenger returning on my flight it was a 767 they told me its still a 787.

As you said I don't think its clear yet what they plan on doing

Thomsons don't know what type of aircraft their July flights will be on. They will be as in the dark as everyone else as to when they will get their 787s. They are making it up as they go along!
