Hi Darren

I have :) followed this site for some time and have 3 questions.

First, flying 20 April TOM070 to Punta Cana and back on 1 May TOM061 - Can you advise which planes we will be on?

Second, will the IFE have changed over by 1 May to the May/June list or is there a slight time delay?

Finally I have read that the luxury pampering pack is not currently being provided in the premium cabin. Does the airline provide anything instead, eg socks, toothbrush and paste, moisturiser etc? Do I need to take my own?

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

happytoholiday,

Welcome onboard :tup
LGW-PUJ-LGW (TOM070/1) are operated by a former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER. Current IFE is for March / April, but it may not have been changed by 1st May as it needs some down-time for that and is normally done when undergoing maintenance checks as I beleive it takes about 3 hours to update the system. As far as I know, the pampering packs aren't being issued at the moment so you won't get them. Personally, I never used them anyway. I have 6 in my cupboard if you want one!! Take your own if you need them but bear in mind security restrictions with liquids / gels.

Hello,

I was just wondering if you know what aircraft is used on the Gatwick to Porto Santo route?

Thanks.

ryansf,

Please provide a flight number when requesting aircraft information as there are often several flight. This ensures we get the correct information for you. I'm assuming you're on the TOM4110/1? I don't have the full S11 schedule as yet, but it should be a Boeing 757-200 or 737-800.

Sorry, yes it is that flight number, on the 17th October.

Thanks

Hi Darren,
When you say you are awaiting some of the summer schedule does this mean that the flight time for TOM7304 quoted on the booking as 06.45hrs may still be scheduled to change? if so have you got that information yet? presumably it will still be a 757-200.
Thanks

Sorry Darren.
That is TOM7304 BHX to VRN 25/05/11.

wasginge,

No, the schedules will be finalised so shouldn't change, it's just the aircraft assigned that I'm waiting for. I normally have it now.

BHX-VRN (Verona) won't be 6:45, so it will change, more likely 2hours or so(from memory)

Thanks BY-TOM-AMM-FCA. Presumably this makes it approx 8.45. At least most of the shops will be open when we get there and a bit longer in bed!!! ;)

Is there any way I can find out the times or do I have to wait for the tickets? The holiday website is still showing 06.45 for the Wednesday flight out.

wasginge,

You should really have been notified of any changes, but times will be confirmed on your tickets.

hi Gurus, had a search but could not find wether ex FC or Thomson A/C on the TOM82 departing on 1st Feb 2012 LGW-HOG-LGW also I would welcome any seating suggestions we are travelling in premium, many thanks in advance John

thejohn,

It's way too early to know what will be assigned in Feb 2012. I'll know from November. It's normally an ex-FCA though. Seating is personal preference. They're all the same in terms of seat pitch and facilities so it's whatever you prefer, isle, window, etc. Row 9 hasn't got a window. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Hi all!

I am flying to Punta Cana on the 25/6/11 and returning 10/07/11. Flight numbers TOM742 and TOM743. Can anyone tell me if its a ex-tom or ex-first choice flight? I've had a look on the what aircraft sight but nothing is coming up yet from what I can see.

Many Thanks
Graeme

graeme235,

I can't confirm it until May, but it should be an ex-FCA.

Hello

I'm planning a holiday to Cyprus in a couple of weeks' time.
Thomson are offering me a choice of two flights and I'm wondering what aircraft will operate on each.
Departure date 20 April MAN-PFO TOM 2336 or TOM 7352
Return date 27 April PFO-MAN TOM2337 or TOM 7353

I haven't flown with Thomson for at least 7 years, since they were Britannia. The aircraft on this route used to be a Boeing 767 which was great for couples because of the two seats by the window. I am pretty certain they don't operate this aircraft on this route any longer, but would just like to check.

Thank you for any help you can give.
