Hi

According to this site it is cancelled. Use the daylight saving time tab at the top, then scroll down to Tunisia.

Another bit of info on this.

i think this might mean my flight times are wrong???

Glasgow to Tunisia 1350 1830 4hrs 40
Tunisia to Glasgow 0410 1650 2hrs 40

These times would indicate that Tunisia would be an hour ahead of us, which they won't be???

Edited to add:

I've just checked my flight times by doing a seach on Thomas Cook's website, and they've changed! Looks like they've realised the clocks don't change there, and have made an amendment - they have also changed by another 10 mins or so each way on the departure times.

That's what alerted me to this in the first place. My flight time outbound has been changed and is now arriving an hour earlier, though they are saying the inbound flight remains unchanged - we shall see!! The first year the change took place on the day of my flight home and few people seemed to know about it, including our rep. It was lucky that local friends had told me or quite a few of us would have missed our flights.

The pilot on our flight told us the local time was 1 hour ahead and then the rep on our transfer coach said it was the same time, after we'd all changed our watches!

There is no time difference after all, confusing! :)

After several attempts to get Thomas Cook to accept their timings were wrong I finally contacted my travel agent (Apollo Travel, part of the co-op group) The lady I spoke to finally convinced TC that I knew what I was talking about so they checked with Google and found that I was right.:roll: In case you're wondering, no, I didn't get an apology and the tickets had the wrong time on but at least I didn't miss my flight.
