Thomson also allocated seats to pax who have not paid for meals, groups travelling with infants and children, so you may find even if you get there early you might not have alot to choose from.

As WATABENCH said advise the check in agent that you have a nervous pax and im sure they will do there best to help.

You may be able to buy extra leg room aslong as these are not located next to the emergency exits doors as Thomson will not sit nervous pax right next to the doors.

Only 763'S ON SSH at the moment.

Think there's only 1/2 flights to TBA a week.

Have A Nice Time.

And if you are adventurous try the quad-biking through the Sinai desert. Great experience.

Hi guys, I've made some progress with Thomson - they actually allowed me to select a window seat - seats 18F/G (for £60 extra! - but worth it in this case I feel).

Is the 767 configured 2-3-2 on TOM?

NCL/SFB is normally a former FCA config 763 (which positions in from GLA) which means its 2-3-2. Former Thomsonfly 763s are 2-4-2 but this route appears to be a former FCA aircraft planned.

ddanny, I'd be very surprised if it was a B767 operating into Bodrum. I don't know which airport you are flying from but usually would be B757 or A320.

The config is 2-3-2 with 36" of leg room and individual PTV's

If you are flying long-haul theres is pre-take off fizz, comp drinks throughout, 3 choices of hot meal and AVOD

flew them to Montego Bay back in Feb... well worth it imho!

( I am 6'2 and a little on the heavy side, so the legroom made a huge difference to me!)

Thomson Airways Question

Do any of our friends at TOM have any idea what MAN - RAK is due to be operated with on Mondays and Fridays in February? I'm guessing that with such a diverse fleet post FCA merger, it could very well be anything....?

Mondays are down to be operated by an Airbus A320 whilst the Friday flight is listed as a Boeing 737-800

hope this helps!

Thomson Premium Seats

Hi All,

I am going to Florida (Sandford) in September flying with Thomson and I have chosen the premium seats. Has anyone got any views or experiances of this. Is it worth it? What should I expect?

Thanks,
RJS

Thomson BHX-RHO

As the Thomson summer aircraft allocation is still not online could someone tell me what aircraft to expect of BHX-RHO 27/07/11?

I have booked Thomas Cook but they actually use Thomson on a Wednesday.

Previous years it has been a 757 but the long-haul 763 now does short-haul on a Wednesday, which in the past has been for the Luxor but with the recent troubles I would be amazed if it goes there.

Also does anyone know if the high-density 763 is coming to BHX this year to do the Med flights?

Pete
