ACMI makes sense of the info out there thanks...TCX should be able to co-exist with an expanding EXS @ STN...they achieve it @ MAN & BHX for example, capacity might be downgraded however @ STN if the ACMI a/c were to be A320 instead of the A321...I seemed to note no mention of LTN for 2018...The TCX long haul appears to be 6 PW ex STN,most probably in the main peak period..

Bit of a shift around i would hazard a guess that the current yearly leased aircraft will be re-allocated next summer to the bases mentioned above with the A321 going the opposite way to BHX/CWL/LGW/NCL ? Five B753 going to condor with Six A321 incomming.

The plan from our so-called 'Managers' is to have based at BFS, EMA and STN aircraft owned and operated by third party operators from eastern Europe. They'll have TCX markings and TCX Cabin Crew but they won't belong to Thomas Cook. The airframes (all quite old) and the pilots are nothing to do with the UK airline.
What you see when you book a holiday is not what you'll get.
Caveat emptor.
During the winter season I believe the plan is to run the fairly light programmes out of Aldergrove, Castle Donington and Stansted with W patterns from other UK bases. But, of course, the very last people to know will be the Pilots affected.

You are correct. It is a legal obligation to show the operating airline. If it changes after booking you have to be informed.

Tunisia flights and holidays back on sale today. Three times a week from February, seven per week in the Summer.
A risk, but I'm sure there will be plenty of takers if the price is right. Good news for the tour operators who have suffered majorly from Tunisia, Egypt and Turkey's issues. These destinations offer far better margins, with much less Loco competition. Hope it works out.

Pilot strike planned on 8 September over a big pay rise of around 10,000 if the media is to be believed.

Now we have the threat of a strike by TC pilots. What are the chances of that coming off I wonder.
