Q about flight numbers

[floridafluff]

Hi,

booked with TCD, three weeks to go !!

they have sent through a letter saying that the flight numbers have changed and now begin XLA - does this mean its a different airline?

we are going sunshine first, so i expect to receive the same service

have never travelled with TCD before and have heard mixed reviews, am now beginning to feel a little nervous.

if anyone could shed some light on the matter that would be great.

thanks
lynne

Isn't this because they are using some Excel Airways aircraft?

TCD and Excel are I believe now the same company or one owns the other.

Excell are XLA and connected flew with Excell to Greece and they were advertising TCD everywhere. Must be part of the same company.

Link to news story, here.

So basically Avion are the parent company to both TCD and Excel.
