infoqueen Posted April 3, 2013 #1 Share Posted April 3, 2013 At long last had my email off Thomson re allocating our seats on our flight after I sent them an email to enquire when we would hear from them. So looks like no extra legroom seats left and indeed a lot of seats already taken. Question is row 5 still left wondering why is it a problem row. How can I find out what type of plane we are on so I can suss out the layout. Have tried seat guru and its not recognised the flight number will book row 5 if its OK but want to do it before they go. Or rows 13,14 backwards are free think they are by the wings thanks people Shirley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalos Posted April 3, 2013 #2 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Sometimes the Aircraft are shown as for example 737-800Ng . The letters only mean that the model of aircraft is Ng = Next Generation . If that is what you have ,then take the letters off ,which then would be Boeing 737-800 series . Thats how I do it :) If your plane turns out to be the above then seat 5 is not too bad as we book seat 6 on this type and both seats do have a window. Next option would be to put your flight number (eg- TOM852) into Google and it may come up with aircraft type telling you when it flies as well . Or even try thomsoncares@thomson.co.uk. they may know the aircraft . Hope this helps you :):D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topsey130 Posted April 3, 2013 #3 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hi Infoqueen Where are you flying from? we are on the same cruise as you flying from Exeter and i had not yet thought about booking seats.... need to make sure i have an aisle one for Mother :) Not yet had any upgrade calls which is what normally prompts me to sort out seats :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tizzy-Jo Posted April 3, 2013 #4 Share Posted April 3, 2013 The last time we flew with Thomson, I started checking every day from about two weeks before the 90 days. I didn't wait for the Email. I'm sure when we could actually choose our seats, we picked them from a seating plan. I do hope they still have that facility.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively, what is your flight number? I might be able to try and work out the aircraft going off flight times and Thomson flights site.

infoqueen Posted April 3, 2013 Author #6 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hi think it is a 757 as they have pre allocated us row 40 going out which we can change but there seem to quite a lot of seats already taken especially down the front don't want to sit at the back its noisy. Topsey didn't realise you were going on the same cruise we are flying from Birmingham if you paid the reservation fee you should have had your email supposed to be 90 days before but I had to email to jolt them.

Sailaway487 Posted April 3, 2013 #10 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Definitely a Boeing 757-200 as they're selling the brand new extra legroom seats on it. They've taken out some rows on the aircraft and placed new extra legroom seats in, which won't be on emergency exists for a change. Unfortunately, no online seat plans on any website at the moment because of the changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infoqueen Posted April 3, 2013 Author #11 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Have booked seats 6a & 6b going out and 5e & 5f coming back but maybe we can upgrade to extra legroom at the airport if there are any left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For your onward journey I would get a bottle of water off the cabin service as it is only a fraction of the cost of inside the Airport . On the way back we would make sure we had plenty to drink before the airport and would buy something like grapes to eat in airport , so to avoid buying drinks until back onboard the aircraft . I know airports are dear but this one is really expensive . The Turkish military run this and you and the coach go through a checkpoint and then you go through a security screen just to get into the airport :eek: then baggage checkin ,then security again :eek: Then just before boarding they put you into a giant fish tank and search you once more before boarding your plane :cool: The good news is ,if your not on a cruise and stay you will not be parting with a £10 note :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On our transfer bus, they were selling bottles of ice cold water & other cans of drinks - not sure if they do that on all transfers though.
