So would you recommend rows 38 & 39? Full view of ground & all seat facilities, i.e. 33' & proper recline etc, not too close to the galley or toilets?
Cheers

Seating is personal preference. What one passenger likes, another may not. In terms of seat facilities, 38/9 are no different to any other row in the economy cabin. You'll get a good view of the ground from that row, although you'll have a huge 11ft tall API blended winglet abeam of you (about £0.5 million worth!). Disturbance wise, you'll have cabin crew going up and down but you get that anyway. I've sat at the back of many aircraft and personally, don't find the foot traffic up and down the isles distracting. A pair of noise cancelling headphones see's to that plus I'm always by the window!
Darren
PS: That reminds me, I need to replace the batteries in the headphones for March
Hi Dazbo,
Was just wondering what exactly the API was for that we have to fill out.
Thanks Racegirl3075

racegirl3075,
API is Advanced Passenger Information. It's been around for a few years and is an enhanced security procedure. The details you submit are passed over to security services and checked against a list containing known threats. If your name and other details match a known suspect or someone on a threat or no-fly list, you may be stopped or prevented from flying. More details on Thomsons website. It's nothing to worry about, it's their to protect aviation and the general public.

Ah, ok, thanks Dazbo! Only 17 more days to go! Just waiting for the IFE to be posted up so I can plan my viewing!! Yay! x x 
Thanks for your quick reply, i think we'll just stay with the extra leg room seats and as you say spend the extra money on other things during the holiday. We just want to try and get the extra leg room seats that are not behind a bulk head or near the toilets as i need to stretch out being 6ft 4.
hi Darren - can you tell me what type of plane flew to cuba on 22/11/10? it was a thomson flight(booked holiday through firstchoice) and the flight no. was TOM094 out of gatwick. the plane was supposed to have a seat pitch of 33in but it certainly did not seem that to us. we flew on the same holiday last year but on a firstchoice plane and there was much more room. the seat configuration was 2-4-2. there was also no premium cabin on this flight.
thanks
thanks
Hi Darren,
Many thanks for your help in the past ...... need your help again!
Am enquiring on behalf of someone else, afraid I don't have flight numbers. Flights from Cardiff to Sharm - Will the aircraft be a 757 and will the IFE be with drop down screens in the aisle?
Also, we are flying from Gatwick to Sharm on 23rd Aug (know it's early to enquire) but am I right in assuming the aricraft will be a 757? Also, we have booked extra legroom seats, and wish to book the sames seats we booked before which were located towards the rear of the cabin behind the bulk head, but am unsure of the row number ..... think it may have been row 32????
Many thanks,
Pat

The aircraft used to operate TOM094/5 on 22/11/10 was G-OBYD. This is a short haul configured aircraft and was a change from the original aircraft as Thomson Airways was an aircraft short at the time. This was due to a landing incident the month before that damage the aircraft and grounded it.

When are they traveling from CWL to SSH? Winter season or summer? I'll assume the winter season. Flights TOM466/7 (on a Thursday) are operated by a Boeing 757-200 and TOM532/3 (on a Monday) a Boeing 737-800.
LGW-SSH-LGW (TOM536/7) on a Tuesday is normally a Boeing 757-200 in the summer, but I won't be able to confirm that until about March. It's row 32 that are the extra legroom seats towards the rear.

Hi Darren/BY-TOM-AMM-FCA,
Is it too early to know which aircraft is scheduled to operate the TOM630 cruise charter to Barbados on Monday coming (10th Jan)?
Cheers,
Ralph

jetnoise,
It's is, yes. We won't know until the day before at the earlist. It's normally G-OBYG (mainly) or G-OBYJ. They're both the same inside so it makes no difference which really.

Thanks Darren!
From reading past posts and other sources I take it that both of these have the 5 rows of Premium and thus there is not the "row 9" problem with lack of windows for the "window" seats?

jetnoise,
These are both long haul configured 76W's with 31 premium seats (first 5 rows) and 252 economy seats. All the premium seats have windows as they are forward of where the wiring /air conditioning is routed. The same window is missing, it's just in the economy section (row 10) with the premium section not being as large.

Hi Darren,
Sorry to bug you again!

As I mentioned on the previous page, I don't have the S11 schedule as yet. I'll not get it until about March. It's normally a 757-200 in the summer, but I can't confirm that as yet. These have screens over the isle.
