Hello
Would anybody know when the IFE for Thomson long haul on the dreamliner is to be updated to the winter schedule. Noticed that the latest IFE info goes from Aug-Oct.
Thanks for any help
Hi Sleeper,
Check out Trip Advisor ..... IFE for the winter season has been posted on there a couple of days ago.

screwy,
It should be ex-FCA. There are no 'best' window seats, it's personal preference. All seats offer the same basic facilities. You might want to avoid rows 14-29 if you don't want the wing in view.

Thanks Darren. i'll bear that in mind when the seat booking window opens.
I take it that not all the ex fca 767's have been withdrawn.?

Just a quick point. We have already booked (for next May!) and instead of the incessant emails about upgrading, I actually had a phone call yesterday from a "live" person at Thomsons asking if I wanted to upgrade to extra legroom or seats together (apparently it was a special offer). Seeing as it's just a (fairly) short hop to the Med, we aren't that bothered.
After going with Thomsons 6 times in the last 3 years is this a new marketing ploy ?

They have changed the configurations of the 737 and 757 to incorporate more extra legroom/extra space seats and the 787 has more than historically the 767 has/had so that department has more to sell to less people(less flights that the previous seperate Thomsonfly/First Choice airlines had) although there is slightly more demand now days and people are more accustomed to paying for them now some scheduled airlines charge.
Thanks for the replies guys.
If you are travelling on the 787 the extra space seats are not worth the extra money. The 'normal' seats seem to have the same space and legroom.

..sorry to disagree ...but if you are over 6' tall and have any problems with your legs, the extra couple of inches makes a distinct difference, also you are less likely to get the people in the row behing objecting when you recline on a Night flight!!....and doesn't cost anywhere near as much as Premium Economy.

The extra space seats in rows 11-13 (A/B/C & G/H/J) have 2" more seat pitch. Exit and bulkhead have quite a bit more pitch, it's just that with bulkhead you've no seat in front to stretch your legs under.
We were in 13A&B outbound and 30A&B inbound and noticed no difference at all. 
Row 30 is the exit row?? Sitting opposite the crew seats? Tons of room on B/C - but don't think that A is sold as ELR because of the bulge on the door?
Yep row 30 is exit row. There's masses of legroom but as brewerdave says, A/J aren't sold as extra space because of the door, but there's still plenty of space.

13A/B have 2" more seat pitch than standard economy seats.
