davecttr Posted August 23, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 23, 2017 (edited) Last time I flew to Palma to join Discovery I dropped my bag at Gatwick the day before the flight. I am flying to Palma again from Gatwick to join Majesty so I checked the Thomson site for confirmation as I have a 6.15am flight. It now says day before bag drop is NOT available for Thomson cruises due to screening and security issues Hence the confusion I wonder what time the check in desk opens? Oops, got the quote wrong Cruise holidays Unfortunately, Day Before Bag Drop is not available for Thomson Cruises. This is due to luggage and medical screening requirements.

NorfolkTraveler Posted August 26, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Good morning, We are planning to do the same, so I checked our e-ticket for info on dropping off the day before and found the following statement: "If you're planning to drop your bags at the airport the day before, please note you must have checked-in online first" I shall be showing this to the drop off people if there is any comments made at the time. Hope this helps :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecttr Posted August 26, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted August 26, 2017 I don't think that will work. The last time I flew from Gatwick to Palma I dropped my bag the evening before and went straight to security next morning. When I got to Palma I found I did not have a medical declaration form which caused some hassle. It turned out that the declaration forms were handed out at Gatwick but not to those dropping bags the day before.. This may be the medical screening issue they mention. I shall have to be awake at 4am to join the queue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
