humanist,
Thomson Airways will no longer have inflight meals on short / medium haul flights. A selection of meals can be purchased onboard on selected flights. Details are given in their inflight magazine that is linked from our What Aircraft? guide (link below), on page 6. Meals are still provided on long haul. You can take your own food onboard, that's never been a problem. Just bear in mind security restrictions if you're bringing it to the airport.

Just a quick note to say how good my recent flights were with Thomson to Fuerteventura.
Flew out from EDI on 15th on one of the older 737-800's (didn't catch the reg), no winglets and quite a dated interior. However the flight was smooth, good meals by airline standards and a very informative pilot.
Took a ride on G-FDZW on our return and what a difference with the new Boeing interior and leather seats - mood lighting was cool too!
Don't know if anyone can confirm this but is the sound-proofing better with the new interior as the cabin was noticeably quiter?

The newer 737's are an updated aircraft and therefore designed to be quieter internally and have updated engines.

Hi
I'm looking to fly to Tenerife to stay with friends from Manchester airport on 27/12/11 for 2 weeks. Thomson, Thomas Cook and Monarch are all around the same price at the moment.
I know this is a slightly vague question, but do you have any kind of idea what type of aircraft these Airline use for this route. We went to Lanzarote with Monarch in July and was on a huge Airbus A330 that was really nice, and would really like to go on something like that again! However I'm not sure if they use these in the winter.
cheers, and again apologies for the vague question!

I'll need flight numbers in order to comment on specific flights as there are several daily. Thomson and Thomas Cook mainly use Boeing 757-200's to those destinations, sometimes the larger Boeing 767-300/ER. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What aircraft? guide (link below).

Thank you Darren i will check nearer the time
Hi Thanks for the info!
does anyone know if there is likley to be any price drops on ney year flight to Tenerife any time soon?
The only reason I ask is because last year I left it really late (about 3 weeks prior to departure) to book our flights with Thomson's. In the weeks before the flights were about £290pp. then all of a sudden they dropped to £125pp!
What would be the reason for this? do they ever add more flights on the same day, or maybe use a different sized aircraft this give extra seats at a cheaper price?
cheers

james 84,
At the time of your you're wanting to travel, I would say it's unlikely.Christmas and new year are one of the most expensive times to travel. Prices are effected by demand and supply so it's impossible to know what the prices will do. The best way to do it is keep looking and when you find a price you like, book them. The trick is not to look again afterwards in case they've gone done, or up! Charter airlines set their schedules up to 12 months in advance based on anticipated demand, they don't normally put extra flights on and aircraft types are scheduled in.

Hi Darren
Can you advise where the plane will be coming from before our flight on Sunday 30th October from gatwick to Punta Cana. Just wondered if it will already be at Gatwick when we arrive.

MAZ1406,
Please quote flight numbers when requesting aircraft information. Are you on the TOM022? The aircraft operates LGW-SFB (Orlando Sanford)-LGW (TOM046/7) prior to your flight arriving in LGW on Sunday morning at 0635.

I hope everything will be OK then, what with the Hurricane about to hit Cancun.
Rina looks more likely to make landfall in Cuba after Mexico. Not heading towards the DR.
Sunaddict, you did not get the meaning of my post. we are going to DR on Sunday but the plane is coming from Cancun.
Sorry! Thomsons Cancun flights up to the 28/10 are on scheduled 24 hour delays at the moment.
