I booked my premium cabin over the phone .
As there were 5 of us I too wanted to be guaranteed seats together.
The girl was fab , she got the rest of the girls in store to book groups of nine at the same time as putting ours through.
It meant there were more than half the cabin free.
When she completed the booking she went straight on the system and gave me all the options while I was looking at seat guru.
So we got exactly what we wanted at no extra cost then booking online .

That’s sounds great! Your agent sounds super helpful. I did try phoning today but couldn’t get through, which is totally understandable.

Good morning. Just wanted you all to know how I got on.

I messaged to check availability of Premium. I had no answer from TUI on twitter or facebook but I did get an answer from my local store. They were able to tell me the availability but not if there were any together.

There were 38 available so I took the chance.

Booked it this morning and was able to book seats straight away. 4DEF Outward and Inbound.

What I did notice is that there wasn't as many available to book as she had advised. Not sure if perhaps they can see seats that are available that we cant.

Thank you for all of the help.

They must get so many calls and messages about checking seat plans before ppl book. I never understand why they don't just make it available, its very naughty. When I was looking for our cancelled Sept trip, I used to message them and ask all the time to check the seat plans for me. Its ridiculous you cannot see it, especially when you are in premium. We had lots of seats left but they were all scattered so I didn't book (just as well really!).

It would make it so much easier if you could see it.

Were they able to tell you what seats were available? We’d like to rebook for Sept 21 but it puts me off not knowing what’s available.

We have been looking to book with TUI in Premium for next year too. Please can some lovely Dibber tell me if £2700 is a good price for the two of us from Man in July? We would want to be sitting together!

Thank you in advance for your help.

The lady in store could only tell me how many seats were still available. She said she couldn’t see which ones. I guess I’m TUI they would know exactly.

I’m so sorry I don’t know what a good price is with TUI we are VIRGIN veterans so this is all new to us.
