A350Saltire

Hi all

I am flying with TC from MAN to JFK on February 25th and we’ve been told that the aircraft is operated by Air Tanker. Does that mean there will be no onboard PE.

I dont mind, I just want to know if I should take my own device with movies already downloaded on it or not.

Thanks.

Thanks, I hadn’t noticed that. So it’s likely to
be G-VYGK which as at seat PE.

The documents around the bid for Flybe by the consortium of bidders make it crystal clear that a continuing relationship with Thomas Cook is not favoured. How much feed do TC get from Flybe at Manchester and will the loss of that short-haul feed impact future growth plans at MAN?

Anyone know when the ex MON a/c will get repainted out of that hideous hybrid scheme?

Hideous! I hope they leave them like that! Better than the Thomas Cook livery!

The normal TCX is fantastic especially on a nice sunny day but don`t like that special scheme very much

G-TCVB is currently enroute MAN-AUH for MX and repaint I believe.

These dates work in with cruises by Fred Olsen on the Boudicc. So I’d say these are cruise charters.

I think I prefer the blue livery with the tail like TCDB is currently in, as well as EX-ZBs as it is quite special.
But the new one, I think it’s ok, but not the best livery out there.

Can`t agree I am afraid, the new scheme especially on A330 knocks spots off all the others and has wow factor a sunny day

It’s nice on the A330, but it’s not good on A321, prefer the blue and heart on A321

According to Jethros, TCX have acquired an A321 from WOW. 4 A321's have already left the WOW fleet to Air Canada. The oldest aircraft in the fleet is TF-GMA which is 2.8 years old, MSN7127. The youngest aircraft currently in TCX fleet (with Air Transat for Winter) is G-TCDO at 2.9 years MSN7055. Any addition from the WOW fleet will make it the youngest in TCX fleet.
