Is there an online timetable (like the Thomson ANA one) that we can see a breakdown of aircraft operating individual routes?

Does Canadian Affair know that the 757 will not be flying to Toronto this summer as it still shows in the booking engine on a Saturday from BHX.
I know the flight schedules show that it is MON114 but the booking engine
is still showing TCX4K/L.

Canadian Affair has updated its booking engine with some of the changes - like the Gatwick/Ottawa flight becoming a TCX A330 running Gatwick/Ottawa/Toronto and the Gatwick/Montreal service becoming a TS A310. Where it has not yet removed the TCX 757s from the systems is presumably where it hasn't yet found a replacement aircraft to operate the flights in question. Monarch are definitely not doing any flying for Canadian Affair this summer now.

I'm sure Canadian Affair are aware of what TCX are operating for them this summer. I heard that Monarch will not operate for them after all this summer, but those BHX-YYZ will not currently be operated by TCX.

Went in my local Thomas Cook today to enquire about my booked holiday to Tunisia. We were looking to change from 2 weeks to 1 week. She couldnt find any Belfast-Tunisia flights on her database so phoned operations department in Belfast. He advised there were no flights on his database either but there was a stop-sale on all Tunisian flights from Belfast. He also advised it must only have came up and more than likely the holiday will be cancelled. The lady then phoned operations on the mainland and she advised that there was no stop-sale on her database but an upcoming schedule change of 7 hours! Who do i believe?

Flt no TCX 8316 BFS-NBE departs 2005 A332 is indicated on last months programme however not on the current one. The changes are fluid at the moment. I cant see any flights to Tunisia (using the new airport NBE or the old one MIR) in September at the moment. Sorry cant be more helpful.

Canadian Affair
I received the March Mailer from Canadian Affair. It shows a more reliable flight schedule with NO MON or NO TCX Flights. All the Thomas Cook 757 flights, that we then believed were going to be MON 757 flights have now been loaded as either TS A310 or A330 flights. Or in some cases, mostly Gatwick operations, it is A330 Thomas Cook (eg to Ottawa, Halifax and Toronto - only 757 flights). Hope that's a little more info for you

Would be a shame to loose Tunisia from BFS, TCX being the only operator. Perhaps the A330 offered just too much capacity after the civil unrest, and no alternative A320/1's could be sourced. Guess it's a waiting game at the minute.
Sharm also seems to have disappeared from the winter 11/12 programme from BFS.
Are other UK airports having Tunisia / Egypt pulled, or at the minute are bookings still to original programme??

Thomas Cook just phoned to confirm the cancellation. She said its nothing to do with the unrest in Tunisia but a lack of demand for the flights from BFS!? She did say bookings are still being taken for the winter schedule. Is it a case of the A330 being too big?
