Thanks for the speedy reply, fingers crossed well get what what we booked

Hello

Just wondering about he allocation of the ex premium cabin seats on Thomas Cook flights
We are travelling to cancun 15 Aug on TCX 296 and noticed from a previous post by Drat that they have reserved seats online in the old premium cabin when flying to Sanford
I was lead to belief that these seats were only going to be allocated at check in on the day and was not available any other way.

If anyone could let me know if they have changed there policy again, i would be grateful.

david p 1572,

Drat is flying on the larger Airbus A330-300. This aircraft is all economy and doesn't have a premium section at the front. Your flights are operated by the Airbus A330-200. Details of how the former premium, now extra legroom seats are allocated is explained on this page. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Hi Darren,

My wife and I are going to The Gambia in November flying with Thomas Cook on flight TCX2108
Our information tells us nothing about the aircraft we will be flying on.
We tried to book premier seats but where told they no longer offer this service so we settled for the next best thing
and that is we paid extra for the privalage of being able to book our seats from the 15th August
Can you advise us as to what aircraft it will be and what you would consider to be the best seats, we do prefer a window seat.

Many thanks

tush,

MAN-BJL-MAN (TCX2108/9) are operated by a Boeing 757-200. Gambia (Banjul) isn't classed as a long haul destination. Premium seats were never offered on that route and have been withdrawn now anyway on long haul. There are no 'best' seats. Seating is personal preference. They're all pretty similar so it's really a question of whether you want to sit towards the front, middle or rear. All seat other than extra legroom have the same seat pitch and facilities so it's really up to you. Seat A and F are by the window. All I would say is you might want to avoid rows near to the toilets so you don't have people queing by you and disturbing you. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below) including aircraft photos and a link to the seat plan.

I thought Premium had finished and that you can only book premium seat for your return journey without the extra's that premium used to give you. Also the planes are going to be refitted to 29" seats, or is this on just some of the long haul plane. Sorry I want to cancel this message as I have read an old thread. (Sorry again)

Pansypotter,

Refer to our What Aircraft? guide (link below) and my post to david p 1572 above.

Hello again

Having never let me down before could the people in the know clarify the following:

TCX2462 MAN-ACE 25th July 2011 and TCX2463 ACE-MAN 8th August 2011. What aircraft will be used for these routes?

Hoping for a 767-300 again, my favourite aircraft.

Many Thanks

Hi,

Flying from Manchester to Las Palmas 22nd Sept Flight TCX 2018. Just want to clarify, if possible, is it 757-200 that is used on this flight?

Terrier71,

MAN-LPA-MAN (TCX2018/9) are indeed showing as a Boeing 757-200. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Fergmeister,

MAN-ACE-MAN (TCX2462/3) is showing as a Boeing 757-200.

Darren

TCX 2438 (MAN-CFU), the 767-300 does it come off a red eye in the early hours (Turkey) or is does it nightstop in Manchester after a busy day on the Sunday. I'm flying on it next week and just wondering whether or not to expect a slight delay etc.

Nick 1992,

TCX2438 arrives in the early hours then has a rest and a bit of maintenance then off again on it's next flight.

Darren

Hi Dazbo, Would you be able to tell me where my plane arrives from before my flight to palma. Details are 19th july Man to Palma TCX2102 and would you be able to tell me if any a380s coming in between the 16th-19th as we will be staying at the airport pub. Many thanks Bryan

ccrider1uk,

The aircraft operating your flight comes in from one of several flights, most likely TCX2384/5 from PMI. The Emirates A380, flight EK17/8 arrives at 1225 and deprts at 1410 daily.

hi i have just returned from turkeywith thomas cook,i dont know what anybody elses opinion of this airline is but to say space is limited is an understatement,you can then imagine my dismay when the selfish inconsiderate oaf of a man sat in front of me reclined his chair fully once we had reached our altitude,left it fully reclined until our descent and had the cheek to tut when i struggled to get out to use the loo!!!!!my god i was blazing.Had the passenger asked would it be ok to recline my seat i would have cursed under my breath but have said yes out of politeness ,my other half was struggling too but he had an aisle seat so he could manouvere his legs a little.Am i being unreasonable here i could have reclined my seat but out of consideration for the passengers behind me didnt, i just find this to be one of the most selfish,infuriating things ever and think airlines should ban passengers from reclinig their seats unless it is an aboslute must.Might i also add iam 5"9 and my partner 6"1 had we been shorter i suppose it might not have been such an issue

Idris elba, we flew back to Newcastle last year from Dalaman and the girl behind me decided to have a sleep but with her legs tucked up against the back of my seat, everytime she moved the back of my seat moved aswell it was the longest 4 1/4 hours i have ever spent on a plane. However it could have been worse, my wife was not sitting next to me as we booked in late and somebody put a bottle of spirits in the overhead locker which fell on her head when another passenger opened it during the flight! .
