Thanks Darren, was worried about a no window situation, I can deal with a partial view though.
Hi Darren,we are looking at going to Mexico in 2012 (March) any chance that the Dreamliner will be in service by then????
qatarman,
The first is due for delivery in January 2012, assuming there are no further delays at Boeing. It's unlikely Cancun will be one of the early routes it's used on.

weecarol,
MAN-BJV-MAN (TOM532/3) should be operated by a Boeing 767-304/ER (winglets, 328 short haul). You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Just been on to select our seats for the flights and both are coming up as a 3-3 configuration - any idea what aircraft this will be?
Thanks

If it is, it will probably be a very long flight as they will have to go the long way round. Usually takes about 6 months to get long haul over water clearance. Up to then they will probably be restricted to flying within 60 minutes (about 450 miles) of land. For Cancun the "180 minute rule" is usually used which means they are able to fly up to 180 minutes (about 1100miles) from an airfield which is suitable for landing their particular aircraft

busdriver,
I've heard the Canaries will be used for that initially. The 787 is expected without a premium cabin due to there not being any relaxation in the Air Passenger Duty so it's likely to be introduced on the high density lower premium routes once in long haul service such as Sanford and Dominican Republic, but that's to be confirmed.
TOM are an established ETOPS operator and the aircraft should come ETOPS certified so I would have thought introduction in to their long haul schedule wouldn't take that long. It's expected in long haul service in Feb 2011.

Welcome onboard
NCL-PUJ-NCL (TOM676/7) are operated by a former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). IFE listings aren't released until the beginning of May. They'll be linked on our What Aircraft? guide once they are available.

Darren,Do you know which aircraft Thomson will be using on the Newcastle - Rhodes route on May 11th?
Tom 1376 out and Tom 1377 return.
I am hoping it is not changed to a Thomas Cook flight at the last minute.

NCL-RHO-NCL (TOM1376/7) are operated by a Boeing 757-200.
TCX have subchartered most of their flights from NCL to Mint and Astraeus (Rhodes flight) so it wouldn't be TCX even if they did!

razza923,
Service is generally excellent. You'll get a couple of drinks rounds, meal service (if opted for) and duty free plus IFE via mainscreen.

button216,
MAN-ZTH-MAN (TOM2504/5) should be operated by an Airbus A320-200. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). IFE is provided via drop down LCD screens over the seats.

Thanks Darren,I was hoping it would be on a 757-800 but after travelling with Thomas Cook 3 times since October I am getting used to being cramped in my seat.
Jay Trip,
Now feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think such plane as a 757-800 exists, as far as I know the 757-300 is the latest design; although the entire 757 range is no longer in production. Did you mean 737-800?
By the way Darren, I saw earlier you wrote that Thomson expect their first 787 delivery in January 2012, I highly doubt it if boeing carry on with all these delays. To be honest it wouldn't surprise me to not see it in Thomson colours until after Jan 2013!

So were MyTravel/Airtours when they got the A330. However, they had to wait 6 months before they got ETOPS approval extended to cover the A330.
