Anyone heard any news/rumours re Thomsonflys winter schedules and the possible basing of a 3rd craft?
Next summer a TOM based 737 will operate these 4 charter flights:
TUE = Pula
WED = Paphos & Verona (both new)
SAT = Salzburg (new)

All Thomsonfly flights (both charter and scheduled) will operate under the TOM callsign and flight code from May 2006. Making it quite hard to tell which flights are scheduled and which are charter.
Don't the Thomsonfly BOH-Pula flights already operate with TOM flight codes although its a charter service?
Will the Bournemouth charter flights be booking through Thomsonfly.com with the rest of the scheduled flights?

The Pula flight is the only charter operated by TOM for Thomsons this summer. No loco seats are offered on this weekly service.
Thomsons use TOM flights to Malaga, Palma, Faro and Pisa to carry charter passengers into the resort areas.

Thomson Holidays have added another weekly Tenerife service for this winter period. A second flight every tuesday which means they will be going head to head with Palmair on both the tuesday and friday flights. I hope they aren't diluting the market too much.
Its great to see Thomsons come back in such a big way at BOH.
Just hope they fill all their seats on all routes to ensure continued growth for them and BOH.

Tue BOH-TFS 0700-1115/1200-1605 TOM741/2
Fri BOH-TFS 1415-1830/1915-2320 TOM743/4 - no inflight meals
Indicates to me that the Tuesday might be a full charter operated by TOM while we may see a TOM scheduled service to TFS over the winter as the Tuesday service makes no mention of no in-flight meals

New Market holidays have extended their flights to Barcelona from just 1 flight originally planned for April this year to weekly flights in Oct/Nov 05 and Feb - Mar 06.
Maybe TOM should introduce a 4x weekly service to Barcelona every thur,fri, sun & mon. This may only have a slight impact on the FR Girona service. New Market already use TOM flights to Amsterdam and Paris so they could just use the TOM flights instead of having to organise a charter operator.

Newmarket use the Ryanair Barcelona Girona route for their Barcelona departures. There are no charters arranged for the route. They take allocations of between 40-50 seats per week. Thomsonfly wouldn't want to do Barcelona alongside Ryanair when there are so many other routes not operated by anyone still!

The advert said ' return flights to Barcelona' so I presumed that they would mean Barcelona and not Girona. Anyway I guess its good for the Ryanair loads.
I know that Spanish Getaways use Ryanair for their holidays to the Costa Brava.

i doubt it.
loads have been diabolical. very rarely do the numbers go above 90 on any flight.
maybe the decrease in frequency will help...
it would be more wise for Jet2 to replace it with Edinburgh or Spain and show thier commitment to the airport still... good for PR

Does anyone know for sure or with some certainty what we can expect from Thomsonfly this winter at Bournemouth?
Do you think there is any chance of sister TUI carrier, Hapag Lloyd Express, launching services to Bournemouth from Cologne/Bonn for example, similar to their operations into Coventry?

Just checked the website and flights between Belfast and Bournemouth are still bookable until the end of October albeit on a reduced frequency.

Don't dispare yet!
I know PM has considered a Leeds - Bournemouth and that is within the last three months so there is still hope for a Leeds link up with the south coast.
