Hello

Flying to Samford from Manchester on the 5th June - I believe we should be flying on A330.

We are in the premium cabin and are about to book the specific seats. Do the seats in the back row of Premium recline? The window seats have a toilet behind them (I think) and I would prefer to be able to recline without disturbing anyone behind me

Thanks

All the rows recline in PREM. You will be on an ex MYT plane to SFB, there are no toilets in that area, they are downstairs towards the rear of the mid cabin. The seat plan on internet will no doubt show toilets behind the back row, but these aircraft are not used on SFB routes

cheryl41,

Refer to your previous post regarding aircraft type. The aircraft could come in from several destinations, for example Dalaman (TCX454K/L) or Larnaca (TCX702K/L)

alboy26,

I thought you weren't flying until 2nd June? We don't mind providing aircraft information, but only on flights you are actually taking. Please refer to your previous posts.

Re: THOMAS COOK AIRLINES - FLYTHOMASCOOK .. Q&As

Hi Darren

Reason why I was asking cos picked tickets up and its says A321 ??? Is there a reason why they have changed the aircraft ??? and also is the configuration the same ??? reason being we have asked for a disabled seat for my mum and the company rang up monday and asked if they couldnt let my mum have a disabled seat would we have to cancel ??? or could she manage a normal seat ???

Thanks Cheryl

Re: THOMAS COOK AIRLINES - FLYTHOMASCOOK .. Q&As

cheryl41,

In that case, they've changed type since I got the list. I don't know whats up with TCX this year, they're constantly changing things. All the aircraft information is on our What Aircraft? guide but in essence, apart from a few less seats, they're the same. I can't answer if you could manage a normal seat as it depends on the disability. Depending on the seat originally given, it may not be any different that the one now assigned anyway.

Re: THOMAS COOK AIRLINES - FLYTHOMASCOOK .. Q&As

Malchester,

MAN-LAS-MAN (TCX043K/L) are operated by an Airbus A330-200. Further aircraft information including a link to TCX's inflight magazine where IFE is listed, is availalbe on our What Aircraft? guide. IFE for October is released in August for Aug - Oct.

Re: THOMAS COOK AIRLINES - FLYTHOMASCOOK .. Q&As

Hi there - a group of 7 of us are flying out to Puerto Plata from Glasgow next Tuesday (25th May 09:55) TCX35K and have booked seats based on the A330 (which was the information given when choosing our seats, and why 4 of us have booked the double seat config at the rear).
I've noticed that this week instead of the A330 they are using a 757, does anyone know if this is still likely to be the case on the same flight next week.

Thanks
Kaz

Thanks for clearing that up BTC. My last seats on a TCX flight weren't for some reason.

Re: THOMAS COOK AIRLINES - FLYTHOMASCOOK .. Q&As

KazR,

Welcome onboard :tup

They aren't using a Boeing 757-200 on the TCX035K/L (assuming you mean the flight yesterday, 18th May?). That aircraft doesn't have the range or capacity needed to operate the flight without stopping and either leaving passengers / luggage behind or operating two flights. TCX035K/L was operated by G-OMYT yesterday, the usual Airbus A330-200.

Re: THOMAS COOK AIRLINES - FLYTHOMASCOOK .. Q&As

Thank you Darren - you've put our minds at rest :-)

Everything I was checking yesterday (flight tracker etc) stated they were using a 757 so you can imagine what we were all thinking.

Thanks for such a quick response !!!!

Re: Would this be helpful to those travelling with TCX?

ButterChickenGirl,

I think that would be a great help to members. However all the information is available online in Thomas Cooks inflight magazine. IFE guides are on pages 114-121, retail range from pages 124-171 and the bar/snack menu from pages 180-187. It saves you a lot of typing! There's also a link on our What Aircraft? guide to the inflight magazine.

Re: THOMAS COOK AIRLINES - FLYTHOMASCOOK .. Q&As

Darren,

Some help please; my cousin is fly MAN -SSH on 4th July 2010 on TCX27K and returning SSH - MAN on 25th July 2010 on TCX27L, could you tell me which aircraft operates this route? I'm guessing it would be an Airbus A330-200 or a Boeing 767-300 but not quite sure. Also will the aircraft have seat back IFE or not?

Thanks a lot,

Alex

alexblfc,

MAN-SSH-MAN (TCX027K/L) is down as a Boeing 767-300/ER. IFE information is on our What Aircraft? guide. A332's have seat back IFE, the A333 doesn't.
