You'll find further aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

sorry missed out the important part the return flight TOM123 on 21 december

lincsun,

In that case, flight details are slightly different. It's an ad hoc flight on the 21st December;

Dep POP Tue 14:00, Arr MAN Wed 02:20, Boeing 767-300ER, Flight No: TOM123

Darren

thanks for that. have you any clue why its an ad hoc flight?

lincsun,

I don't unfortunately. Out of 25 weeks, it's the only one to operate that schedule.

Darren

Hi Darren

Don't know if you can remember but I asked this question a while back and you intimated that I ask after the first week of November as the info I requested would be available then so here goes

This was the info requested previously
Hi

TOM 158/9
Manchester - Dabolim
Dec 21st - Jan 11th

Could you offer any advice as to the plane this will be? I have booked seats 2F&G in premium and I was just wondering if this will be the first seats? I hope not as they have the hand hold screens and I think the trays are at the side. Can anybody tell me if this info is impossible?

And the added info I would like was then asked here

Sorry I did look at the link you provide but I missed the vital piece and that is, is it possible to tell whether it is V1, V2 or V3 as the seat plans are different for each planes or is this an impossible piece of info to be found in advance.

Would this be the Ex Thomson or Ex first choice flights by any chance?

Thanks for your continued help.

Sleeper,

MAN-GOI-MAN (TOM158/9) are currently operated by a former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER (winglets). You'll find seating plans on or What Aircraft? guide (link below). It's too early to know if it's a V1 or V2 aircraft.

Darren

Darren
Thanks. How do I find this out? Just annoying me.....I am hoping for a V2.

Sleeper,

We'll know the day before. Chances are, it will be a V2 simply because there's only 1 of 6 aircraft in the V1 configuration.

Darren

Darren

That sounds promising indeed. Thanks.

Hi...question please...I'm flying on Thomson from Gatwick to Goa next Wednesday (17th Nov.) & returning 25 Nov. - can you tell me which plane please?

Thanks BBF.

Hi Gower, Thank you for your reply. So my worst fears are realised. I am going to have some strong words with my travel agent. I feel I have been very badly misled by Thomson. It was a phone call from Thomsonfly which persuaded me to upgrade the seats having assured me we would not be by the toilets.

We have flown Thomson long haul quite a few times and when visiting the toilets I have always felt sorry for the poor folk sitting there. People like to stand around to stretch their legs in that area and often the toilets are not the sweetest! And for this privilege we have to pay extra. I don't think so.

Thank you again.

BerniesBestFriend,

Welcome onboard
Please quote flight numbers when requesting aircraft information to ensure we get the right flight. There are sometimes multiple flights. LGW-GOI-LGW (TOM082/3) are operated by a former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER. You'll find further aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Darren

OK Darren...thank you...I'll remember about flight nos in future!

BBF

Thanks Dazbo! Will speak to Thomsons again and keep my eye on it! X

Hello all,

I have just returned from TOM123 Puerto Plata to Manchester 09 Nov (flew outbound on the 02 Nov) Went on the ex Thomsonfly 767 G-OBJY both flights and was very impressed with legroom and service on board. We had a 2.5 hour delay on our return due to adverse weather in the Dominican, but no big deal and we were kept well informed. Would definitely fly Thomson longhaul again.

Thanks to everyone for your pre-travel advice.

Travels from EDI

A few weeks ago I enquired as to the aircraft type which would be utilised for TOM 108/109 Manchester - La Romana 16/01/2011 - returning 30/01/2011.

Subsequently I was kindly informed that it woud be an ex `first choice` 767, and we have booked seats 3A & B in premium. Could anybody please advise as to whether these will be the first row seats directly behind the toilets, as it is difficult to ascertain from the seating plan.

In the event they are then I will be onto the airline to amend.An experience in similar seats ( albeit on a non premium cabin 757-200) was not very enjoyable, as it was the only remaining serviceable lavatory on the plane, and we dont wont to run the risk of repeating the experience or odour!

Many thanks

4betterthan2,

You'll find seating plans for all aircraft types Thomson Airways operated linked on out What Aircraft? guide, with toilet positions indicated. There's a toilet foward of row 1 on the port side of the aircraft (your side). However, given you're in the premium cabin, it's unlikely you'll get any queing like you'll have experience previously.
