Hi

A quick question regarding premium cabin pre-booked seating.

I am flying to Florida on TOM168 MAN-SFB on Aug 7th 2012 returning 3 weeks later on TOM169.

My question is do I have to wait until 90 days before my return before I can select my seats on the phone and if so does this not give passengers travelling for 2 weeks an extra week to select their outbound seats before I can select mine?

Cheers,

digitrac,

Welcome onboard :tup
I've always been able to select seats 90 / 60 days (phone / online) from the number of days from the outbound flight and selected seats for both the outbound and inbound sectors at the same time, but others have had a different experience. You can only give them a call or wait until it's available online and see.

Hi Dazbo,

We are flying on the TOM494 on Fri 9th LGW- Sharm el Sheikh. Are you still able to advise where the flight is coming in from beforehand?

Thanks!

Hi Darren

Should be an easy one for you this time. TOM 162 (Manchester to Pueto Plata) 15th March should be an ex First Choice according to the seating plan but where does it come in from? I guess the beers will be on me during the post flight three hour coach trip as a thanks for all the help you've given in the past :cheers

LisaMJ,

Friday 9th March? There isn't a flight immediately before it. The aircraft only operates LGW-SSH-LGW (TOM494/5) that day.

It is an easy one since I'll be on the flight with you!! Are you off to Cayo Levantado too since you mention the 3 hour coach trip? Don't forget 10 minutes on the boat across to the island as well! The aircraft normally night stops and doesn't operate a flight immediately beforehand. Beers will be on the menu well before the coach ride, try 45 minutes after take-off!

See you 2 weeks on Thursday :cheers

Thanks for that Darren. 2 weeks on Thursday it is!

Go easy on the beers though - I don't fancy diving off the boat to rescue you if you fall overboard :rofl

I'm a qualified rescue diver, don't worry! I'll be diving off plenty of boats over the 2 weeks, that's part of the reason I'm going! The Humpbacks are in the bay at the moment so I'm told so don't forget your camera.

ok!
i was able to choose my seats today. tom138 17th may. it seems that thomsons are only allowing me to pick, between rows 20 and 40!!
my choose was, rows 34 and 35 a and b!!
what do you think?
thomson's seat plan doesnt show, toilets, bulkheads or doors. so i used your seat map. how accurate is it and will row 34 have trays be in the arms of the seats??
thanks dazbo!

buzzer14,

Row 34 is as good as any other really. Tray tables are seat back. Only those in premium and extra legroom rows fold out from the arm rest. The seats plans are accurate for respective types.

i've just noticed. the seat config,thomson have sent me, is a 2 3 2.. does this mean, it will be an ex-first choice, rather than ex-thomson as expected?
flight tom134/135 17th may birm-cancun.
thanks.
