Thomas Cook Airlines prepares for takeoff
28.03.08
A new holiday airline is to launch on Sunday (March 30), operating 42 aircraft from 11 bases in the UK. Thomas Cook Airlines was formed after Thomas Cook's merger with MyTravel. Its first flight will take off from Gatwick Airport to Reus in Spain at 05:05 on Sunday.
The new airline will carry 2.9 million passengers this summer to 78 destinations. Its managing director, Frank Pullman, said: ‘Over the coming months we have a number of changes scheduled, all of which will add to the customer's enjoyment and comfort, such as increased seat pitches and new cabin crew uniforms.’
These include a wider choice of movies and other entertainment choices on long haul flights and a new selection of in-flight products. Those travelling in premium cabins will enjoy duvet quilts instead of blankets and u-shaped pillows.
