Thomas Cook airlines - first time DIY - help please

DanSambora85 · 12 Sep 16, 04:00 PM

Hi all!

This is our first time booking DIY and our first time flying Thomas Cook airlines and I have a couple of queries...

The 'priority package' (quick boarding/fast baggage collection etc) for �15 each, is it worth it?

And with regards to choosing our seats, what would you recommend? Obviously we want to get off the plane as quick as possible haha!

We are 2 adults flying Mon 18th Sept - Mon 2nd Oct.

Thanks in advance!

Hi we are going TC in March, we didn't pay for priority package, but we pre booked our seats. Chose the �20 ones as near to the front as we could get and on the left hand side of the plane.

Do they unload from the left then? Never thought about that to be honest!

Every plane I have been on does.

We had the priority package for our trip just gone in August from Man.
To us it was well worth it for the premium check in (huge que for the other TC desks) and fast track through security.
Cases were off very quickly too at MCO. We have booked it again for next years outgoing flight as coming back in PE.
We had rows 10 and 11 this year going out as were again in premium on return. Next year slightly further back in rows 19 and 20. These were the nearest to the front in the 2-2 format.
They unload both sides btw. x

Thanks for the help. For the sake of �15 I might get the priority package outbound.

And as for seats, it's furthest forwards gets off quickest and it doesn't matter which side? Nice. Thanks!

If it's the air tanker you want rows 8 - 14 as the door is row 8/9.
We are in row 12 d/e/f outbound on the airtanker and row 5 premium inbound.
