Hello!
I am flying next year from LGW- AGA on the 24th March and returning on the 31st.

I have a few questions, which I would be very grateful if anyone could answer:
*Will it be an A320 or a 757 (if so which series)?
*What is the seat pitch like in economy?
*Do they offer free drinks?
*Do TCX have a good punctuality record?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Aircraft due to be a Boeing 757-200, the 757 and A320 only offer a single class service with a seat pitch of around 28-29" if you can i would sugest booking extra legroom via Thomas Cook Airlines website (www.thomascookairlines.co.uk).
Drinks are available to pay for onboard, but they do provide free glasses of water on request, and tea & coffee is free with meals.

Thomas Cook for the last couple of years have been voted best ontime holiday airline by Which magazine.

Punctuality slipped quite significantly for all charter airlines in summer 2004 (from previous summers), but TCX still hung on to 2nd position overall (Britannia / Thomsonfly were 1st).

Notably TCX dropped to 3rd position behind Britannia and First Choice in the recent winter 2004 / 2005 season (your flight is officially in the winter season).

See www.flightontime.info (http://www.flightontime.info) under "Charter Airlines". Watch out on that site around Jan 2006 when the Summer '05 results are published.
