You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below) including a link to the seat map for the aircraft you're travelling on. Approximately rows 10, 15 and 17 have no windows.

Welcome onboard :tup
Please quote flight numbers whenever possible. This ensure we get the correct information for you. LGW-MBJ-LGW (TOM024/5) should be operated by former First Choice Boeing 767-300/ER. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below).

Hi Darren,

My son and his girfriend were originally going to book with Virgin but has now booked with Thomson.

Outbound: 30th Sept TOM022 Gatwick to Cancun
Return: 14th Oct TOM023 Cancun to Gatwick

I assume that it will be a 767-300 Series, but would you happen to know if it is version 1 or 2 as they are looking at booking their seat numbers.

Many thanks,
Pat

When they log into choose their seats, 90 days before their return flight, it will show the correct aircraft layout for the flight.

Hi sunadict ....... thank you.

Like me, they don't book their seats online but book them direct with the airline. We fly our to Cancun 4 weeks earlier and I booked our outbound flights last Monday, but will have to phone back on the 11th JUne to book the inbound seats. At the moment, our outbound is on a 767-300 V1, so I'm assuming their will be the same ..... just wanted to check.

Regards,
Pat

Selecting your seats online via the online seatplan is still choosing your seats directly with the airline. You can choose your seats online or phone up and do it. Either way you are still booking them directly with the airline.

Hi athertona2K,

Yes I realise that. However, I've also found that if I book my seats directly with the airline, I've always been able to do so before the 90 period comes into effect ...... this year 2 days earlier and getting the actual seats I want. Also, they sent me email confirmation of my seat numbers which I show as check in as proof of booking them and the date I booked them.

Regards,
Pat

Phoning the airline doesn't mean you can book them earlier. They have to wait for the flight to be loaded before they can book seats. Once it is loaded it appears online, and you still get confirmation of seat booking.

Hi sunadict,

Just checked our paperwork ..... the 30th May would have been 90 days before out outbound flight. I phoned through on the 29th ( 1 day earlier) to be told that the seats for our flight were loaded and I could book them, which I did, and received the email confirmation through with 2 mins.

Regards,
Pat

I just wish Thomson Airways would make up thier minds I booked seats direct with the airline for Cancun in March this year we could only book the outbound flight and had to wait 14 days for inbound. Now it seems you can book both providing the flight is loaded on the system.On Thomson Holidays it say 90days from your inbound flight,left hand and right hand comes to mind.

Pat, whether you ring the airline or go online, you can book them if the seat plan is loaded, whether that's 90 days, or earlier or later. Both have access at the same time, and the same procedures are followed. Last time I booked mine, I checked the seat plan was loaded online, rang the airline to book them (only because I wanted a question answering) and I spoke to two different people who both told me the plan wasn't loaded. I just booked them online instead.

qatatman, it seems to depend on who you speak to if you ring the airline. Some operators will let you book both if the plans are loaded, others won't, and then there are the one's that just give out totally wrong information. There doesn't seem to be any consistency about it at the moment.

Does anyone know whats happening with the SH 767 fleet (how many are operating short haul). Its just yesterday there was G-OBYD,F,G and H operating SH and also SE-RFS (a TUIfly Nordic a/c). I cant remember them having this many on SH last year - is it going to be like this all summer or was this a one off?
Plus, if its not a one off, is G-OBYG still in LH configuration and is the TUIfly plane in the same SH layout as the Thomson planes?
Reply
Hi Sunaddict i think they make it up as they go along??. Will try on Wednesday for our seats to Cyprus.

G-OBYG was returned to short haul config last week. SE-RFS is indeed operating for TOM, this should be still in the LH config.
