No news at the moment but I'm sure we will arrange the likes
Of Titan or Astreaus to operate the flights if the strike goes ahead

The ballot of cabin crew was not a ballot for industrial action, it was a ballot to gauge opinion if there were to be a ballot for industrial action, sort of 'let's find out how much support the negotiating team have.' It is a long way from action.

The A330 due to operate TCX125 LAS-MAN on Wednesday, does it operate any other sectors or does it operate as a positioning flight empty from the UK ?

The date mentioned is 2013, so would the time tables be out for 2013 yet?

It's definitely an 0930 departure on the 757-300. TC are really bad at conflicting timing information and getting utc/local time variances wrong on passenger ticketing and confirmations though - similar confusion has arisen on both occasions when I've flown with them in the last couple of years. If it's bad for people who understand a bit about aviation and scheduling, the average punter doesn't stand a chance!

I to have heard this rumour regarding SFB flight in 2013, although I was told it would be a one off flight

Always go by your tickets. The system that we use for seating and online check-in dosen't always have the most up to date times. Your boarding passes are fine to use, as long as your name and flight number is correct. Hopefully when the new system is in place, this should iron out the problem.

Point to Point??

I`m led to believe that TCX are point to point like Ryanair or EZY..Just that due to a very unfortunate event one of our party is flying out next Saturday instead of Friday with the rest of us, that he was originally booked on . We are all returning together on the following Friday as planned. FlyThomasCook, when you eventually get through to them, say just tell them whats happened at check in so they wont cancel the return....They seem to possess more faith in the Check in system than I do...

Any views..ta

It currently says on their website:
If you fail to check in at all for your flight from the UK, we retain the right to cancel any other arrangements you have booked with us and you will be unable to use your return flight to the UK. No refund can be made for any unused arrangements.
Just also checked with TCX ground staff at BFS, the passenger thats travelling out a day later need to show himself at checkin with his documents in order for them not to cancel his return to the uk. Otherwise pop into the TCX/Handling Agent a day or two before hand.

FlyThomascook should put a note on the booking to say they are not using one of the sectors which will prevent the booking from being cancelled, not that I'm aware of us automatically cancelling any bookings nowadays, as well as reconfirming your flight, which is no longer needed.
