What I believe is happening is that Thomas Cook (the tour operator) has block booked capacity on ZB services, including the new Leeds routes. This will help Monarch to establish its new routes, and means TCX (the airline) does not require to own/operate so many aircraft.

That sounds like win-win.

1 A320 will be based at CWL. There will be no W patterns this year. There is also 1 ad-hoc charter to SFB on the 24th March. And OHY will be operating an A321 to DLM on behalf of TCX on a Friday evening.

Hi all due out of NCL 29/8/12 to SSH and did so back in May 2012 having checked online is it correct that IFE has been re activated in June 2012 on the 757 fleet?

The IFE is available on some but not all of the 757 fleet. So it's pot luck if you will have it.

Anybody know why TCX134 (LGW-HOG) has returned to Gatwick tonight, almost 9 hours after it departed LGW this afternoon? Seems rather odd, and certainly frustrating for the passengers, to return when it would be just as quick to carry on to Cuba.

A maintenance issue that needed to be sorted at base maybe, but it was able to continue in flight, at FL390, for four hours after turning around.

Maybe the latest hurricane in the area was the reason for the return.

According to AV Herald, it was losing hydraulic fluid then the hydraulic system failed.

Just to let anybody know that two Thomas Cook 757's will leave the fleet this winter (one has already been withdrawn). Probably the two A321's which are due in 2013 will replace them.

May be or my be not.
Need someone from TCX to confirm, as my understand from previous press reports, lease a/c 2013, own order from Airbus 2014 onwards.
My understanding is lease a/c not coming for 2013.
