19ashfield,

Welcome onboard

Aircraft changes do happen from time to time unfortunately. You don't say what dates you are flying, which departure airport and on which flight (number) so I can't check (there are several flights per week from the UK to Varadero), but if you've been notified of a change then is has been. You'll find lots of aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below). I know last Thursdays flight from Manchester to Varadero was changed to a 76W as I was at MAN on Friday morning when it landed so I assume it's the TCX051K/L you're on?

19ashfield,

I thought it must have been the TCX051K/L. I've just looked and 28th Jan is indeed a 76W. My trip report from these aircraft is on our What Aircraft? Guide (link below).

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

Hi,

I have had a look through and have seen this has being discussed but can't find the answer - do the seats at the back of the a330-200 (long haul to vegas) where they go into 2's have lift up arm rests? My tall partner struggles with the narrow seats and I'm wondering whether to go for an exit seat where you definately can't lift up the armrest (so I've read) or the 2's which might give us more width if you can lift up the arm rest?

Unfortuantely it looks like all the premium seats that are being sold as extra leg room have already gone.

Thanks in advance!

Littleflyer,

Welcome onboard :tup

I believe the arm rests are fixed in the pairs at the rear. Seats on exit rows have fixed arm rests and are narrower than standard seats as the IFE screen and tray table are stored and lift up out of the arm rest.

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

Hi Darren,

Thanks for the welcome and reply. Does that mean that the armrests lift up in the other seats that are not exit or in pairs?

Thanks.

Littleflyer,

Yes, the standard seat arm rests lift up between the seats.

Littleflyer,
FYI, the arm rests do not lift up throughout the cabin, only 2 rows do, and they are 13 and 14 if I remeber rightly.

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

Hi

I am considering flying Thomas Cook to Cancun in December 2011.

I normaly fly using premium seating but understand this service is not going to be available on outbound journeys as of May 2011 but is available inbound?

If this is correct can anyone tell me what will happen to these seats on the OB journey, are they available as Extra Leg room?

Thanks

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

Whilst searching the net I discovered this which may answer my own question

The reason you cannot pre-book the Premium Cabin on the outward journey is due to the significant APD (Airport Departure Tax) increase on premium seats. The APD fee on charter flights from the 1st of May 2011 will be £150 which is the same as those flying 1st class on a scheduled flight.

Thomas Cook can offer its customers the option to reserve Premium seats on the return flight from £50 - avoiding the excessive tax.

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

You should bear in mind that "Premium seats" will only mean extra legroom. No other extra services will be provided ...

Jonouk1211,

MAN-LPA-MAN (TCX136K/L) will be an Airbus A320-200 with the look of it.

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

netty10,

Is that the Thursday flight from Glasgow to Dalaman? I'm assuming it'll be a Boeing 757-200. There's no window on approximately rows 10, 15, 17 and 40.

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

netty10,

No worries, it came up as Glasgow-Dalaman for some reason. It't been a long day though, I might have looked on the wrong line! I've got it on the screen now and it's showing as a 757 so as above.

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

Just a quick note that as of from now travel agents have access to information as to whether the longhaul aircraft will be OY- meaning 29" seat pitch no seat back TV's as this has been made available via extra information and booking conditions, worth checking up on.
