Outbound meal choice:-
Chicken coq au vin
Salmon in pepper crust ( I dislike salmon, this is gorgeous)
Mushroom risotto
Inbound:-
Roast Beef
Thai Red curry
Veg roast dinner
All the meals are very very nice. The salmon and Curry are probably the best from each sector- well in my opinion.

Hey BY,

Do you know if the premium meals are loaded in the UK for the return legs or picked up in Cancun?

Thanks

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

The hot meals are from uk, the trays- salad/pudding/bread/pastries from abroad. US destinations are always completely locally catered. Some other routes are completely UK catered, I can't remember which ones.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Thanks for the info was wondering if the return food would be mexican catered. Last time we had Mexican catered airline food it was horrible!

Glad to know the meals are from the UK!

Thanks

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Hi Darren,

Hope youâ€™re well. Iâ€™m flying LGW-TFS-LGW (TOM 4226/4227) on Tuesday 10th/17th September; could you please let me know what AC type Iâ€™ll be on? I have a feeling itâ€™ll be the 767, but could you confirm? Whatever it is, it should be roomier than the Piper PA28 Iâ€™m learning to fly in!

Cheers,

2morrows pilot 2day,

LGW-TFS-LGW (TOM4226/7) are scheduled to be operated by Boeing 767-300/ER (short haul). I had my first lesson in a PA28-160, they aren't the roomiest but a nice aircraft all the same.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

How often do they rotate the inflight meals? I presume they use different inflight meals for the dreamliners than they do for the mid haul flights? Also is there anyway of knowing in advance what your meal will be?

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Hi flying to Ibiza tomorrow from Manchester TOM2462 would you be able to tell me the registration of the aircraft and if possible the flight it will be doing before ours...

Thanks, Liam.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

liam12189,

As your flight is operated by a Boeing 737-800, it makes little difference what specific registration you're on. All the seats are the same through the fleet, the only difference is whether is has the sky interior or not. As there are several based aircraft, that are swapped and changed daily, it's difficult to pinpoint a particular registration. You'll find out about 6pm tomorrow! It should be coming in from KEF (TOM2412/3), but this can change.

Have a great holiday,

Darren

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

Hi Dazbo,

Off to Cancun on Saturday morning on the Dreamliner TOM144. I just wondered if you could tell me which one is operating out of Manchester at the moment?.
Thanks for all your time answering my many questions :cheers

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

dinner-lady,

It makes no difference as all three are identical aircraft other than name. G-TUIA is at Glasgow at the moment, G-TUIB/C at Gatwick. G-TUIB normally comes back to MAN but this can change. They are rotated regularly, there isn't a particular aircraft based at a particular airport.

Have a good holidays :cheers

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

dinner-lady,

I should be able to let you know tomorrow evening. It's the aircraft operating the flight to Sanford on Friday (TOM126/7) that goes on to operate your flight on Saturday.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

We fly on Sunday from East Midlands to Malaga. Does anyone know whether check in is at a machine followed by dropping bags at a desk (like BMI Baby used to be) or is it just a traditional manned desk? We haven't paid to sit together (never have, never will!)....I suppose what I'm getting at is will they maliciously try to split us up as a punishment for not paying or will it be no problem as long as we check in early, which we always do.

Thanks Dazbo ......
On another note is there anything interesting coming in or out of Manchester tomorrow afternoon as we are heading up to the pub at the end of the runway for the afternoon?

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS ... Q&As

dan123,

Most are going to machines followed by bag drop off, I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case at EMA now. You won't be maliciously split up, what makes you think that? No airline that I have ever flown with or dealt with would ever do that. The way the system works actually tries to minimise passengers being split up and tries to seat those under the same booking together as far as possible. Due to aircraft seating however, it's inevitable some won't get seats together. That's what selecting seats is there for if you want to guarantee where you sit and with who.
