Thomas Cook - PE or extra legroom
My flight from Manchester (August 2020) with Thomas Cook is offering extra legroom seats for £65pp or PE upgrade for £130pp. Not sure which to go for. Has anyone flown Thomas Cook before? Is the upgrade worth it or even the extra legroom seats? Not sure whether to book either now or take a gamble that they might offer us a cheaper price at check-in instead. Any advice appreciated. Thanks 😊

We fly PE with them and well worth it in our opinion. We looked at price of economy, added extra leg room, fast service check in (can be booked separately for economy), drinks on demand, extra luggage and luggage off first, plus ife, we ended up booking PE and have done ever since. We like PE for the extras, worth it for us as it’s a nice way to start the holiday. We are looking for next year and will be flying PE again.

I know they are complimentary with meal service but not on demand, some people buy drinks before boarding. We fly from Manchester and the quicker check-in is worth it, still busy though. Coming back last year the queue for economy check-in was very long, so glad we were through in about 20 minutes even with queuing

It depends when you fly in August, but our flight out only had one seat available in PE on check-in, next to me , coming back there weren’t any seats available. We fly from Manchester as well

I paid similar for an upgrade to PE with Thomas Cook in 2017. Our two grown up son's booked on the flight a few weeks later and the price of PE upgrades had increased. They paid £60 for the extra leg room seats instead.
I'd say that for PE is a good price and worth it, I'd doubt you'd get better at check in. It's a supply and demand thing so you can never be certain.

OP
Another vote for Thomas Cook PE travelled with them for the first time last Oct pre-booked 7A & 7C plenty of leg room and no one behind you no toilet queues or noise : and first off both ends It is great food outbound (James Martin meals) but the usual food on the inbound, and the price was right. Would we book with them again...definitely. |
