Thomson Airways doesn't truly exist until 1st November. However, we are now using a single A.O.C hence operated by etc. The First Choice brand will continue for holidays, but flights will be done by Thomson Airways. It will take a while for re paints etc as the final livery is not yet decided. FCA crew will soon adopt Thomson uniforms, with a new uniform for all when the 787 arrives. I imagine 767 configs will remain as they are. Some Thomson 767's operate short haul and are configured for this. The aircraft changes are just ops optimising aircraft use, but there has been lots of juggling to rescue XL pax.
