Thanks for that Darren, that what I thought but the seat plan still cannot be accessed and the days are counting down, something is going on for sure. They are normally quite efficient for this.
I shall report back if when I get a straight answer!

Im booked to fly with my two teenage children to sanford from birmingham on 23/6/13 tom630
One of my children has a medical condition which means i may have to assist her urgently at times. The airline are happy to carry her and she will have a fit to fly letter from her paediatrician.
Welfare have suggested seats 11cde fior us. Anyone tell me much about these. Mainly i need enough room to be able to grab stuff out of her emergency bag and give her drugs if necessary.
I know these are close to toilets which is handy in some respects as i will always be nearby then but bit worried about people cutting through the bulkhead space/standing there.
Thanks for any help you can be
If one of your children has a medical condition then they won't be permitted to sit in row 11(assuming an ex-FCA 767) this is a stipulation by the CAA. I recommend row 14 AB or FG. Unfortunately the configuration of these aircraft means they don't have many seats that can be used as welfare seats. Standards seats are quite roomy on Thomsons long haul aircraft, certainly enough to administer intravenous drugs, oxygen etc..
The fitness to fly certificate will not bypass emergency exit regulations. I am quite shocked that the welfare team are suggesting these seats. Who ever occupies these seats needs to be able to operate an exit door at any time, which if your daughter is in a situation (hopefully not) requiring her treatment she wouldn't be able to.
Just had a look online as seat booking for our flight is now open. Row 11 looks like it is directly behind row 9 (no row 10??) and it does show as having a an 11a,b,c,d,e,f,g
Really confused now. Anyone help?
AngS,
You have to bear in mind the online seat plans don't show all the aircraft details, only the position of seats. Your flights should be operated by former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER as BY-TOM-AMM-FCA mentions. You'll find a detailed seat plan on our What Aircraft? guide (link below) where you'll also find extensive aircraft information including photos of the seats on row 11 and 14.

Thanks for that. Welfare are still saying they will be seating us in row 11(which looks great in the photos on the link) even when i asked specifically about them being exit row seats. They said they werent classed as that. So will just keep my fingers crossed.
Can someone tell me what aircraft is operating the TOM7226 BHX - PMI on Tuesday?
AlastairTUIHA,
BHX-PMI-BHX (TOM7226/7) are operated by Boeing 757-200. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Hi Darren

Thanks

Hello Darren
We are travelling to/from the maldives on may 19/27 on flights tom054/055. What plane is this along with formation? Do you have any suggestions as to the best seats and those to avoid. We will be in economy. Last time on the same flight, we were unfornuate enough to have middle seats near the loo and it stunk for nearly 11 hours so keen to avoid any sort of repeat!
Many thanks in advance.

TOM516 BHX-ADB is looking like it will be a 757 so the seat configuration will be 3-3. Time yet for this to be changed so dont take it as gospel just yet.
Check back nearer the time.

Clarky,
LGW-MLE-LGW (TOM054/5) are operated by former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). There are no 'best' seats really as all offer the same basic facilities, it's just whether you prefer a window, isle or centre seat at the front or back really. There are cabin and seat photos if you click on the aircraft type on the guide to give you an idea of what to expect. The only ones I'd avoid are the ones close to toilets and the galley if you find the movement of passengers and crew distracting. Other than that, it makes little difference.
Enjoy the Maldives you lucky thing. I'm in the process of planning my third visit for later this year. It's a magical place.

Perfect thanks Darren
Trip booked today....5 weeks to go. Squeal. Looking forward to our return visit to paradise
Hi Darren
I can see Thomsons are now selling their 757 extra legroom rows to Egypt and Cape Verde. Is it just the extra legroom rows they've put in, because I've just been told someone had a call from Thomsons to say they'd increased the pitch on all seats to 31" and 34" for the extra legroom? Do you know if this is correct?
Thanks

Hi Darren,
Time for my annual question. Im probably a little early and i know thomson are probably still shuffling aircraft about due to the 787 issue. But any idea on our aircraft?
bhx to dlm, tom 414/5 on 20th july?
Also, we were on this same flight last year but tom414/5 became tom654/5 at the airport, any idea why? Maybe it will change again this year!
Only wandering as i have given out my flight number to a private transfer company and hope it stays as tom414/5 this year for that reason. I will keep an eye out on flightradar24 when the flight starts on 4th May.
Thanks in advance ... Chris

chrisweaving,
BHX-DLM-BHX (TOM414/5) should be operated by Boeing 757-200. The flight numbers are listed as TOM414/5 at the moment. Why they were changed at last minute on your flights last year, you'll have to ask Thomson. If your taxi know you're coming in from Dalaman on Thomson, I'm sure he'll work out which is your flight if numbers do change as it's the only Thomson flight arriving from Dalaman that day.

Flight numbers usually changed to avoid confusion with another aircraft operating the same or similar route.
Hi there
This is a long shot but I am trying to find some information about the 767's that Thomson are now using on their short haul routes. I'm trying to find out which rows on the left side of the plane have a full window seat for an anxious passenger. I've spent a lot of time on the net trying to find a seating plan or any info/pictures that can help but have found nothing.
Can anyone help with this?
Many thanks in advance
