Funny, someone with a TCX name highlights their main competitors failures...

Here is another one for you:
MAN 19/7/10
TOM 532 Bodrum 07.00 Departed 16.50
Delays are inconvenient but do happen to all airlines not just charter. Fact of life.
So what exactly is your point?

Pointing out that Thomson has poor punctuality most likely... even though Thomson had the best punctuality for Summer 2009, 2008

G-OOBH is the tech aircraft at BHX.
G-BYAW came in from LTN to operate the delayed Pula and G-BYAH came in from MAN to operate the Tenerife.
Just one of those things...Delays happen and I guess at this time of the year in particular there isn't many spare TOM aircraft around

My post wasn't by any means a dig at TOM, they were just the delays that I noticed today & could put on here. Yes TCX have had a lot of delays recently too! With both A/C in NCL needing to be subbed at one point! Yes all airlines have delays during the summer but obviously it's going to affect the charter airlines more. No doubt MON will have some mega delays too before the summer is out.

As I don't work or have anything to do with TCX I don't see how anything will come back & haunt me! Like I said it wasn't a dig at TOM & it wasn't to say how great TCX etc are either.
:ugh:
