I'd guess 737 out and 757 back then.

They've usually been all Boeing, going back to when it was Britannia. They ended up with a few Airbus from First Choice takeover but I imagine these will go before long.

Are Thomson planning to retrofit these then?
Seems pointless to keep a different type like that in such small numbers, pretty sure they only have 1 320 and a couple of 321's. Surely if they need the capacity they would be better off swapping for 738's or 752's. Having said that charter fleets are often miss matched.

Most probably 737-800, since the airline is leasing a few more over the summer period to cope with charter capacity.

There's an android app (maybe iphone too?) called checkmytrip, you give it dates/surnames and reference numbers and it tells you what planes are planned for the trips.
I know this because my missus had never been on a 747 before and has a strange fascination for them - so she made me find out what our Orlando flights were on 9 months before we flew
