mandyjb,

Flights are operated by a Boeing 767-300/ER. Refer to the Thomsonfly thread over on the flights forum for more details. Seating is personal preference really. Have a look at the other thread, there's plenty of information about seating and if you have any particular queries about parts of the aircraft, fire a way.

Thank you so much Darren, Your a star. I like to know whats what before I do anything so now I know it 2-3-3 seats. Think we'll get there early and try to book a 2 seat. I'll probably think of something else Darren. :)

Seat pitch is 30" in economy on the A332's. Refer to the dedicated Monarch thread for more details.

Anyone had any problems with Kingfisher Airlines (Internal) flights? I've just re-checked my booking status for a flight from Goa to Delhi on 09/12 and the flight time has changed by 2 hours! We were supposed to depart at 3:45pm and now we are leaving at 1:50pm! Had i not checked we would never have known.
I've also booked a flight from Jaipur back to Goa on the 14/12 and although the flight time differs by only 5 minutes the aircraft and my pre-booked seats have changed.
Can they do this without notifying me? I've emailed to find out what is happening.

calangoat,

You're on the TOM307/8 aren't you? The flight departs on a Monday at 15:50, arriving in Dabolim at 06:45 (tuesday) through the winter season apart from the flight on 23/12/08 that departs on Tuesday at 02:00, arriving in Dabolim at 16:55.

Hi Darren,

we are flying from EMA to Goa at 15:50 on 2nd Feb 09. we booked through portland holidays. i seem to be getting conflicting information from Portland regarding who we'll be flying with (TOM or FCA). the latest flight number i've been given is FCA028 outbound and FCA029 inbound. usual question, any idea what type of aircraft we'll be on and if so where are the premium seats located?

many thanks for your help

You Will Be Flying With Thomson Airways ( a merger of Thomsonfly And First Choice) On Flight TOM307

They Operate A Boeing 767-300ER on this Route.

Premium Seats Are Located Towards The Front Of The Air Craft,

Can someone please help me?

Hubby and I are flying to Goa on Christmas Day from Manchester via Gatwick - We booked with Thomson and I understand from other posts and conversations I have had with Customer Service it is a First Choice aircraft - Result!!

1. I've been following flight times over the last few weeks (sad person that I am - just brings me a little closer to Goa)and the aircraft both inbound and outbound can be on the ground for as much as an hour and a half waiting at Gatwick. Will we be allowed to get off or do I need to get a really good book to kill the time on the ground.

2. Anyone know what the films are this year. We're on Flight TOM 353 outbound.

Thank you

Only 20 more get ups - Wooooooooooooopeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome onboard :tup
TOM353/4 are indeed operated by ex-FCA Boeing 767-300/ER. As snowyboy mentioned, you won't be allowed off the aircraft as the stop is just for LGW passengers to embark along with their luggage, plus a bit of fuel. You'll find information regarding your flight on the First Choice thread along with Nov/Dec IFE listings on page 94.

Thanks for the welcome Dazbo

I'm a bit of a drip when it comes to "threads" - Only just started to get to grips with booking holiidays to Goa on line - used to be a trip to the Travel Agents - How do I get to where I can view what the films will be?

Sorry to be a pain !!

skinnyminnie,

Just click on the blue bit (page 94) in my last post; that will link you to the right page on the FCA thread. Just scroll down and you'll find the listings posted by BY-TOM-AMM-FCA :tup
