Any idea where Cardiff's will come from?

 

[Marko1]

Sorry no mention about Cardiff. I have checked. I checked on the flythomascook.com website and its states smartlynx for the tfs and her for tues from brs. When checking cwl there's no mention

I saw on another forum regarding BRS having 3x A321's based this summer. Can anyone confirm this?

 

[Marko1]

I checked the flythomascook website and its still showing an 320 and 2 321 s . Could change tho

 

[Jerry]

I believe both BRS and CWL will each have a Smartlynx A320 based.

I've also heard that the 3rd based aircraft could end up being a A321.

They are taking 3 ex Monarch A321's so maybe one of those.

I thought they were going to other airports. Guess it's a case of wait and see.

In connection with the half term holiday there will be an additional Lanzarote flight departing 0920 (the regular Sunday ACE flight on an A321 will operate as usualy). Saturday's additional flight will be on an A320 positioned from MAN at 0830. There will also be an additional Fuerteventura departing at 0930 on an A321 positioned from GLA at 0840. The regular FUE departing at 1350 will operate as normal. With the regular A321 to Geneva that will give three TCX departures on this Saturday morning.

There will be four Fuerteventura flights on this day - 2 x TCX, 1 x TUI, 1 x easyJet.

Details from Mayfly.

My wife was in the central area of Bristol today looking for a Thomas Cook travel shop. It seems there aren't any in the central area any more. There is one at Bedminster in south Bristol, one at Cribbs Causeway regional shopping centre on the north-western edge of the conurbation and one at Keynsham which is just outside south-east Bristol.

Given that TCX is steadily increasing its BRS offering it seems an odd decision. I can only think it's due to the extremely high property rents in central Bristol. TUI still has a shop in the Broadmead area but I wonder for how long.

It wasn't that many years ago when every high street seemed to be teeming with travel agency shops. Like banks they are a rapidly disappearing breed.

I'm sure i read something recently about them closing down stores and saying that it was due to more people booking online than ever before.

I would not be at all surprised but it's still strange that they shut their city centre shop whilst keeping open those in the suburbs. In fact, it's five in the suburbs as I missed the one at Kingswood in east Bristol and one in the town of Yate just to the north of the city.

Bath has a shop in its city centre and Cardiff has two in its central area.

There is one in the worle store. Used it many times to change money. Very handy for parking.
