I have lost my copy of the IFE listings that was emailed to me so it may be a while before I can post it.

I know Marley & Me is one of the films whether thats on the inbound/outbound or long haul only I can't remember (sorry!)

I will post as soon as I can track down the email or a paper list.

Mum2two,

You will be on an A321(airbus) which will still be painted as First Choice Airways.

mum2two,

Sorry to hear about your cancellation, but better to be safe than sorry. LGW-LCA-LGW (TOM4762/3) are operated by an Airbus A321-200. You'll find further aircraft details on our What Aircraft? thread.

EDIT: BY-TOM-AMM-FCA posted at the same time as I did!

Hi can anyone tell me when I will be able to book a specific seat for a flight leaving 16th June to Santorini from Manchester, on the website it states up to 3 months before, but the recording on the phone says 4 weeks, and I cannot seem to speak to a real person or find an email address.

doz123,

You should be able book seats 6 weeks in advance, unless they've now reduced it to 4 given the phone message you've heard.

Hi all,

Flying to Male on the 1st may from Manchester, flight number TOM188, just wondering if anyone knows the routes this plane is on prior to the TOM188 flight.

Kind regards
Alan

Slider,

It Is Difficult To Tell As This Will Be The First Male Flight Of The Season (Summer) This Means I Am Not Able To Back Track What Has Happened In Previous Weeks. Also With Thomsons Canceling Flights To Mexico This Will Mean That There Are Spare Aircraft Arround.

However I Would Expect It To Be The TOM174/5 Manchester-Varadeo-Manchester,

Happy Holidays :sun2

Flights are not being cancelled as such, they are going out empty so as to not strand any more people but comming back full. We wont see aircraft lying around for about another 10-11 days(assuming they continue with this policy after the 8th May)
MAN-VRA-MAN is operated by an ex-Tfly aircraft.

MAN-MLE-MAN will be operated by an ex-FCA aircraft.

Your aircraft will have operated

MAN-LGW-GOI-LGW-MAN on TOM353/4 the day before/of your flight. It arrives at 1615 so 2hours 40 before your flight departs.

So as a tip, use the Gatwick airport arrivals and departures board for TOM353/4 as well as Manchester as it will have more advanced information than Manchester airport. Alternatively=

http://flights.thomson.co.uk/en/flight_arrivals.jsp?language=en&showAll=true

This will show your flight as well, it is quite accurate as it even adjusts for a few minutes delays/early arrivals.

Do you know where TOM126 to Man-Punta Cana will fly in from? We are flying out on 6th May.
Many Thanks

Your aircraft operates TOM122/3 MAN-POP-MAN the day before your flight, landing at 0625 roughly 2hr50minutes before your departure.

You don't mention your dates, as certain weeks has a standby aircraft scheduled to be at Manchester covering your flight. So any delays will be negligable to you if you depart on one of those weeks.

You will be on an ex Thomsonfly aircraft which is 2-4-2 in economy and 2-3-2 in Premium.

GowerL7 and BY-TOM-AMM-FCA,
thanks guys for the info.

I guess 2Hrs 40 is not too bad for a turnaround ( if arrives on time )

Slider,

A 767-300/ER can be turned in 90 minutes at a push so there's a bit of leeway.

Hello, 1st time post here, my family and I are travelling to Kos from Manchester on the 16th May (TOM 2680) returning on the 27th May (TOM 2309). Can anyone please advise the aircraft type(s) we will be travelling on and whether the IFE equipment is seatback or overhead?

Thanks in advance, the guys/girls that post replies to all the queries on this board are doing sterling work!
