Angry ThomsonFly - Schedule Changes

I'm pretty much a frequent flyer with the likes of Easyjet, Ryanair and Thomsonfly, but one thing that has struck me is the amount of schedule changes Thomsonfly make to your booking. I know it's cheap and you get what you pay for etc etc.

I booked my 11th flight with Thomsonfly from Bournemouth last week which is to Amsterdam. The previous one I had to cancel as they changed the departure time by 13 hours !!!!!! Now the new one has also changed, this time by 7 hours. It got me thinking, that out of my 11 return flights only 2 have not been subject to a change. Whereas, having flown Easyjet and Ryanair over 100 times between them I've not once had a schedule change.

Do Thomsonfly actually have a Scheduling dept that knows what it's doing ? or is the airline run on such a shoestring that they don't know from one day to the next where their aircraft will be ?



I'm pretty flexible in my travel plans, but surely the time comes when the punters start to get really pissed off with constant changes and they take their business elsewhere !!
