Dep LGW Weds 07:30, Arr PFO 13:55, Boeing 737-800, Flight No: TOM4314
Dep PFO Weds 15:10, Arr LGW 17:55, Boeing 737-800, Flight No: TOM4315

or

Dep LGW Weds 15:50, Arr PFO 22:15, Airbus 321-200, flight No: TOM4352
Dep PFO Weds 23:30, arr LGW Thurs 02:15, Airbus A321-200, Flight No: TOM4353

I'm hoping the underwear is white and not brown :rofl

PS: The 738's are newish aircraft, from a couple or months to a couple of years old. The A321's are from 1998 (2x) and 2002

That's a shame, I thought you might get your Airbus for a minute then! At least you know if you go over, get the later flight on a wednesday! I've been given a day off work for working the next bank holiday so I'm in the process of planning a day trip from Blackpool to Isle Of Man for my birthday so I can have a play on a Let 410 and Saab 340; see if I can recognise any simalarities with the car (the night panel function and the bongs from what I can gather!)

Hi Darren

thanks for all the help you have given others.

do you know what aircraft will be used for EMA-TFS TOM2681 on the 24th April, returning 28th April TFS-EMA TOM2682?

and ... what IFE would I expect on this aircraft to pass the 4hrs or so.

EMA-TFS-EMA (TOM2681/2) are operated by a Boeing 737-800 (winglets). Refer to our dedicated What Aircraft? thread for more details and my trip reports. BY-TOM-AMM-FCA listed the March / April IFE list on page 57.

Hi Darren,

Just came across this site by chance, and I'm hoping you may be able to help me.

We are flying from Gatwick to Hurghada with Thomson (TOM810) ON 14TH Aug. Do you happen to know what aircraft is likely to be used and what the seat configuration is.

Also, we have booked 3 Exit Seats, and reccommendations as to the best Exit Seats to book on the flight?

Many thanks,
Pat

Welcome onboard :tup
Your flights are operated by an ex-FCA Boeing 767-300/ER. All the premium seats have at least one window. The exception is the last row in the premium cabin; row 9.

Welcome onboard :tup
Your flights, LGW-HRG-LGW (TOM810/1) are operated by a Boeing 757-200 (wingletted). These are configured 3-3 with 28" seat pitch. Refer to our What Aircraft? thread for further details, including a link to the seating plan. Extra legroom seats are located at rows 12 and 32. If you want 3 together, you're best going for row 32.

Hi Darren
Flying Cuba ex Gatwick June understand now on ex Thomson 767 was looking foward to another good trip in FC premier. Question as there are only 31 premier seat on TOM what are chances of getting seats togeather party size 4.
Also do they use best fit like FC or can you book seats have rang but all very much up in the air they said you may be able to book seats 6 weeks before departure, do they mean seat numbers like 2AB or just sitting togeather, also do they charge for this, seeing the price of Premier upgrade would hope its included.
Any other comments would be helpful.

snowyboy,

Are you on the LGW-HOG-LGW (TOM094/5)? They are indeed operated by an ex-Thomsonfly Boeing 767-304/ER. FC / TOM are now operating the same booking / seat allocation system as they are Thomson Airways so one in the same. It doesn't really matter which aircraft you are on from May. Give them a call 6 weeks before departure, and you should be able to request your seat numbers (this is currently availalbe with ex-TOM flights, but no ex-FCA). It's normally included in premium but we'll have to wait and see what the official word is from May once things are up and running.
