Juicy1,

Welcome onboard :tup
Thomson operate several aircraft types that vary by route and flight number. You may have flown on a Boeing 757-200 previously. I can't comment on any future flights without knowing your flight numbers and dates of travel. The short haul 767-300/ER's are configured 2-4-2. It's the long haul 767-300/ER that are configured 2-3-2, but these will leave the fleet by the end of July. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Decided to go back to Mexico later in the year with Mum who is registered disabled. Can anyone advise please on the situation regarding medical seats onboard the Thomson Dreamliner. More to the point,do all the seats recline fully in economy,and which rows (if any) do Thomson set aside for wheelchair passengers or those with mobility and/ or those passengers with mobility issues ?

Any link regarding medical seating or info would be good.

Thanks in advance.

Whomenever,

Medical seats on the Boeing 787-8 are the front row in economy. There's a seat plan linked from our What Aircraft? guide (link below) as well as lots of other information.

Thanks for the reply Dazbo.

I looked at the ' what aircraft ' part but despite looking at the smart new layout,we still cannot fathom things out number wise ? According to pictures,those ''front seats in economy' you mention,seem to be row 10 from a site called 'seat guru' and they look like ex legroom seats at a premium ?

SOZ if I have got this wrong,never needed this kinda help before .

Whomenever,

They are extra legroom or those just behind at the front of the economy cabin. You'll need to call Thomson and explain your situation and that you need medical seating. They'll then reserve the medical seats for you (at no cost).

Hi Darren

Well it's that time of year again, planning holidays! We're booked to fly with Thomson on 7th may LGW to Luxor. The flight leaves at 13.25. I can't seem to find a flight number yet, but would you know what plane this will be?

Thanks

Flights to Luxor should be operated by Boeing 757-200.

Just one final question please regarding this new Thomson 787 Dreamliner.

Are all the seats in economy the same width,and also,which rows if any are to avoided due to not having a window or like I asked,having a narrow seat ?

Whomenever,

Seat widths are all the same. Only row 37 hasn't got a window.

It should be the same as previously.

Many thanks. Did hear a few rumours that it would be two 737-800s and that the Boeing 757 was being taken elsewhere.

Hi Dazbo...!
Could you please tell me what aircraft I'll be travelling on...? 12/07/14 @ 13.55 TOM 294 MAN -SSH. Also which row number should I avoid if there is no window...! Cheers , Ash....

barjiash,

MAN-SSH-MAN (TOM294/5) should be operated by Boeing 757-200. Avoid the last row in the front cabin (11) the first 4 rows in the middle cabin and the last row. All others have a window, subject to the specific aircraft assigned on the day as there's some variation.

screwy,

It depends on the routing and weather (winds) on the day, but expect around 10 hours outbound and 8.5 hours inbound.
