Does Dabolim
 

Go via Dalaman?? Just Dabolim is showing up on the Dalaman airport arrivals as a TCX flight :ooh:

What are TCX basing at GLA this summer?

GLA 4 x B757; 1 x A330

Hope this helps!

Know this isn't the correct thread folks, but out of interest, does anyone know if TC will be recruiting flight crew this winter?

T:suspect:

Does anyone know the reason why Thomas Cooks Boeing 767 G-DAJC is painted in a hybrid livery, why is not painted in the full TCX paint scheme. This aircraft was in a hybrid when it was with MYT.

G-DAJC was due to be painted in full TCX livery but due to problems at Filton, got stuck outside the paintshop. By the time it did get into the paint shop they didn't have enough time to do the full livery.

Does anyone know what a/c type or even reg that'll be on the MAN-PFO route this Saturday, flight number TCX347K, departing at 1530?

Boeing 757-200 scheduled to operate the flight.

Was just wondering if anyone knows if all the refits have been done yet on the A330

Think there is just one left to do,might even be in now getting done.

Thats good then due to fly on one from man to cayo coco next week

If you mean the Thomas Cook Package holidays, then they are already on sale

Tcx At Cwl
 

Does anyone know TCX long term plans for Cardiff?

We have a summer 08 based A321 and a part based ? for this winter canary flights- although disappointedly all mirroring the TOM ones(same day/times) so poor choice for us CWL loyalists looking for variety.
I can see the reasons ie merging flights with TOM if they dont sell but surely if they had operated the FUE on a saturday rather that a wednesday (as an example),it would have been much more attractive and I for one would have been on it!

Yes they are all done now.

Does anyone know why TCX keep changing the time of GLA-RHO TCX987k. It was originally 6:20am, then 4pm, then 7:30pm and now 8pm although tonight its leaving at 9:50pm. Iv not been told of the changed and was wondereing if anyone knows why?

Why would they automatically tell you ?
The flight is scheduled to depart GLA at 8pm all summer.

Thomas Cook has a website with a customer support section and a list of telephone numbers.

Forgive the lateral thinking but..... why dont you ask THEM?

.......and it would save the one line chat show that seems to grip some of you.

As the man says, there is such a thing as lateral thinking, which would also save us some bandwidth.

Resally, well why would the invoice say 16:30 and then a letter saying its changed to 19:30.??? My point, we have not been told of this change

Do you not think i have, we wrote to them in March- No response, called them numerous time and they dont answer, emailed them and no response!!

excuse me for asking a question!!

Mate, if you are worried about the airline answering, or not answering, your questions and are depending on an anonymous website to do it for them...... tell the airline to fark off, take your money back, and walk away.

You aren't going to get a refund from anything said here. So yeah, I hold to my comment, ask THEM.

Can anyone tell me why the TCX flight I took to Calgary from Manchester went via Gatwick... to collect 28 people??

Is this about keeping slots open or something, because it doesn't seem to make financial sense. With nearly 300 on board at MAN, why not bus the Gatwick passengers up north? Obviously more to it than I realise...

There is still one a330 left to be converted had the joys of it going to cayo coco and then back to manchester two weeks latter must say its in pretty in need of the overhall as i was in premium gold and was really not woth the money the seat i was in on the way out the head phone jacks didnt work then on the way back the seat behind us the arm of the seat keepted falling off

Any ideas on what caused todays TCX 473K from Mamchester to Sanford to have such a massive delay. Was due to depart at 09:30 did not leave till 17:55.

Also looking at Sanford airports website, TCX are going to send the Glasgow aircraft on the manchester run back to UK, and delay the departure of the GLA until 11pm.

Sorry don't know what caused the delay but i know that Thomas cook along with other UK charter airlines swap their aircraft at Sanford for there return flights back to the UK for utilisation reasons etc... so unfortunately looks like the GLA passengers have took the brunt of the inbound delay.

pretty much all the tcx out of man today seem to be suffering from a delay tcx154k to faro is another big delay due toleave at 07:20 now due out 3:10.

Seems TCX got hold of a Orbest A332 (Iberworld) to operate the Faro flight. It routed Lisbon - Faro - Manchester - Faro though - I've also noticed alot of bad delays/cancellations over the past few days. Is it just the one aircraft that has caused all the problems?

Probably Because Of The Inexperienced Ops Team Running A Afleet Of 42 A/c.

Planes go tech and no amount of experience in op's can stop that. The last time I saw a weekend like this, it was trying to make an operation work with the whole fleet of Yellow Dog Tristars fecked, all at once.

planes do go tech and its the experience in the ops room that can effect an efficient speedy recovery............

Whats caused these delays, they seem to be on the same aircraft as well...

"Whats caused these delays, they seem to be on the same aircraft as well..."
Havent you just answered your own question...?:)

At no point did you make it clear from your original post that you were actually flying on that particular flight. The mention of "invoice" in a subsequent post was the only give away.
I have never had any problem getting through to Thomas Cook by telephone- you just need to pick the right time.

Technically CabinCrewe I havent answered my own question because I asked "What has caused these delays" they are operated by the same aircraft I known, but I didn't no what was going on there.

But never mind.

And traditionally May is usually a 'bad' month for Aircraft going sick:ugh:

I think some of the machines know how busy they will be for 6 months, Or a 'spot' of De Ja vu:zzz::eek:

TCX dont really decide the timetable for flights, this is done by Thomas Cook holidays. You can find out what is due to operate from EMA in the back of a TC hols brochure for 2009.

It'll be 2 A320s for EMA again next summer, if TCX get any more A321s it'll be to replace the B752s that are ending their lease this year and aren't being renewed, though not sure where they'd be coming from, maybe FCA.

How many 752 is that?
is glasgow still 4 x 752 and 1x A330 for summer 09?
