So what aircraft will i be in???

Postby Jimbo » Thu Jun 09, 2005 8:06 am

SO! i will be going to America pretty soon with Thomas Cook, Charter. I  was wondering what aircraft this will be with them? anyone else been with them before. When we usually go with thomas cook its in a 757, but surely that cramped thing cant reach it accross the Atlantic!

Anyone know at all???

Thanks everyone!

My guess is a 757 or A330.  I don't see any other aircraft that they own that are capable of flying across the Atlantic with passengers.

Yes, Continental uses the 757 to cross the Atlantic all the time...also are you going on Thomas Cook Airlines or  Condor (Thomas Cook)...if you are going on the second one you then have a chance on the 767-300 which will most likely be the aircraft of choice

Whether it's cramped or not depends on the seating arrangements, not the aircraft.

and the SIZE of the passenger... no matter what airplane it is, I'm still cramped if I travel on economy...
