Hi, are there overhead screens or individual screens for IFE on the Airtanker planes. It's just that I've checked on the TC website for the IFE and they say overhead screens... ? Confusing...!? Thanks

Full seat back IFE . Airtanker initially had overhead screens, incorrectly delivered to TC. It was returned and refitted with full IFE and that was around May 2015. We have flown in it May 2015 and May 2016, and booked again for 2017. It is our preferred aircraft for transatlantic trips.

That's great, thank you so much. Heard really good reviews about AT, fantastic considering I was so worried about them when I booked. Cannot wait for our trip now...

This is a really useful thread - I fly out from Stansted 14th Aug and these reports are re-assuring

Hi Duckhook. Couple of questions if I may. Are the IFE sockets single. Are there USB ports to charge devices?

Hi there. Yes the IFE sockets are single and there is also a USB port, however it only allows you to play your device rather than charging it. Hope this helps.

It's only a 0.5A current, so it depends on the device if it will charge faster than it drains. They tend to require you to be actively using the device as it's plugged it as a safety measure.

Will the air tankers be flying from stansted next year? Also how do I know if it's hifly or the AT when I book.
Sorry for the questions - first time booking DIY 😐
