Christine Your airline would have recommend check-in times. Usually some many minutes before scheduled flight time. Depending on the airport/airline it could at least 120 min before departure. All airlines have there own recommended times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseanywhere2 Posted February 18, 2012 Author #3 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Thank you, I've checked our tickets and it says check in 3 hours before departure which is 09:15, but when we've flown with Thomson previously the check-in desks open before the time shown on our tickets. Is this the same when when flying a Thomson charter with P and O? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thejuggler Posted February 18, 2012 #4 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Could be different with a cruise charter, but we flew with Thomson from Gatwick last summer and there was one area just for Thomson flights check in. No dedicated check in desks for individual flights, just one queue for all Thomson flights that day. It worked well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
English Rose Posted February 18, 2012 #5 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I've just returned from a fantastic cruise on the Azura. We got to the airport at 5am an the check-in's were open and fully operational. Great flight organisation there and back and the flights were OK. Arrived at 4am at Gatwick this morning - will write a review once I've recovered!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essexlass2 Posted February 18, 2012 #7 Share Posted February 18, 2012 We did the same flight for an Azura cruise just before Christmas. All checking in procedures as already mentioned and I think the flight was about 9am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annieuk Posted February 18, 2012 #8 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Our last flycruise with Thomson the check-in was 3 hours. Our flight was 9am and we got to the check-in about 5.45am and it was open and people were queing then. Carole:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
English Rose Posted February 19, 2012 #9 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Thank you all helpful as ever.Cheryl, what time was your flight from Gatwick? I'm looking forward to reading your review No problem. The flight time was 8.45 but took off just after 9.00. I'm trying so hard to get to the point of getting the review done but sorting out everything takes time. I'll do it as soon as possible - hopefully before the tan fades!!

sammydo Posted February 19, 2012 #10 Share Posted February 19, 2012 our flight was 08.45 am, and we booked in car park for 04.30am, as the 3 fly/cruises we have done to the carribean, check-in has opened 4 hrs before, although tickets usually say 3hrs., and that is with both TC and thompsons......you probably done need to get there that early, but i am just one of those people that panic before flying, so just like to get check-in over and done with asap.
