Thomas cook informed us on Friday via email that they had changed our plane from them self's to a avion airlines .
We fly on the 7th September from Manchester.
Has anyone flown with this carrier before ?

The fact they only have two planes is making me a bit nervous

Now I'm getting really worried ( gonna ring them tomorrow to see if we can change flights anyone I ask has never heard of them .

Not sure what it is you are worried about - Thomas Cook regularly sub-contract flights to other smaller airlines in this way. A quick look at TA will tell you that they are doing this for various routes, not just Turkey flights - and the small print in their terms and conditions allows them to do so.

Shelly they will more than likely charge you an amendment fee to change flights.
I flew with Pegasus last year & will fly with Sun Express 1 way this year as Thomas Cook operate with other airlines. There really is nothing to worry about

I'm not sure where you got that bit of info from but as of last summer Avion operate a fleet of 9x A320s and 2x A319 based around the world.

Oh dear I am a nervous flyer and have never come across this problem before , I did do a little home work on avion as I had never heard of them . They have 2 planes flying out of Manchester , they do do flights around the world as they are Egyptian company.
I just wanted to know if anyone has flown with them .and give me any feed back.
I did not feel the need to read thomas cook terms and conditions as I have flown numerous times with Thomas Cook , a mistake on my part I suppose as I now realise things change

Anyway as long as icmeler is at the other end of my flight , it's all worth it ))))
