booked through first choice but I think it's a thomson flight


It is a Thomson Airways flight. Thomsonfly and First Choice Airways merged to create Thomson Airways. I wouldn't have thought there would be a difference in price if you phone up or if you go into the shop.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS - THOMSONFLY ... Q&As
hassie1,

People have said that sometimes, by chance I must add, they have managed to get premium seats cheaper. Usually it is because the airline wants to fill the seats. There is no harm giving them a ring or popping in to your local store and seeing how much they quote you. Do you have flight numbers? It will be a 767-300/ER on longhaul routes, as your is, but if you give me flight numbers I can tell you the seating config.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS - THOMSONFLY ... Q&As
Hi, we are due to fly from Gatwick to Montego Bay on flight TOM027. We have booked extra legroom, but their confirmation letters states that seat width is only 16.5". Does anyone know the width of the regular seats? Also, are there any extra legroom seats that are better or those that should be avoided? Thanks in advance.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS - THOMSONFLY ... Q&As
Thanks - I am aware that this is width, but I read somewhere that the standard seats are wider, as thy do not have the trays in the arm rest. Also, does anyone know the configuration of this flight? Thanks

Thanks - I am glad I found this site. We are flying out on 7 April, returning 21 April. Do you know which plane this will be? Also, any extra legroom seats that should be avoided (don't want to sit too close to the toilets...). Thanks again. :wave:

Thanks very much. Sorry to be tedious, but does anyone know which extra legroom seats are better than others, or no real difference? :)

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS - THOMSONFLY ... Q&As
We are flying out to Cancun on the 11th October and were wondering if we will be on an ex first choice plane or Thomsonfly? Flight numbers are TOM144 & TOM 145. Flew with Thomsonfly to Cancun two years ago and i was fantastic so hopefully it will be the same plane!

We have also booked premium seats and want to sit together - does anyone know when we can prebook seats as we have heard of couples being split up?!

Thanks in advance.

Re: THOMSON AIRWAYS - THOMSONFLY ... Q&As
Butchart1979,

It Will Be The Same Type Of Plane That You Were On Last Time You Flew To Cancun,

It Is Difficult To Say At The Moment Which Plane exFCA or exTOM Allthough I Would Expect An ex First Choice (If You Ask Again In May, I Will Know For Certain.

Also With The Merger You Will Hopefuly Be Able To Pre Book Your Seats After May
